But when Phibs and her best friend Gabe surface from the cave, they notice that they're undergoing strange changes. Oozing gashes that don’t heal. Haunting whispers in their heads... Something has latched onto them, lurking beneath their skin, transforming them from the inside out.When treasure hunters arrive, desperate to find the location of the cave and hold Phibs’ group for ransom, she’ll do anything to keep her friends safe. In the process she learns that, of all the dreadful creatures of the sea, she might be the most terrifying of them all.

The Internet goes out and the pilot warns of upcoming turbulence.2. There are five minutes of moderate shaking.3. A woman in the very last row collapses.4. The plane tilts forward and begins to nosedive.When Orion James – the cute boy who's been asleep the entirety of each cycle – wakes, it triggers an alarming change in the events Evelyn has come to count on. As the two grow closer and learn to trust each other, they discover there’s more to the loop than they initially realised. They must find the hidden clues, piece together the moving puzzle, and save everyone onboard – before it’s too late.
