About Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea

Violet White lives in a decaying seaside estate where little ever changes—until the mysterious River West rents the guesthouse. As eerie and violent events unsettle the town, Violet is drawn to him even while suspecting that his charm, his past, and the growing terror are connected. Falling for River may mean inviting the Devil through her door.
