內容簡介 蘇格蘭外島一處史前巨石遺跡中,發現了7名孩子的遺體,7名都是Adder教派的孩子,唯一倖存者女孩Dinah指控島上的女孩Eve就是兇手,但Eve卻已在逃亡時溺死。回顧Eve的故事,她也是教派Adder追隨者之一,崇拜來自海中的巨蛇,但當她發現教派背後的秘密,是否讓她失去理智甚至去殺人? New Year’s Day, 1921. Seven mutilated bodies are discovered in an ancient stone circle on a remote Scottish island. The victims are ’the Children’ - members of a nature cult ruled by the charismatic, sadistic patriarch, the adder. The sole survivor of the massacre, Dinah, claims that Eve is the murderer, apparently drowned while attempting her escape. Yet as Eve’s story of the years leading up the massacre intertwines with Dinah’s account of the aftermath, a darker, stranger truth begins to emerge. The Isle is all Eve knows. Hidden from the world, the Children worship the Great Snake who dwells in the ocean, dance in the stones at dawn and offer their blood in sacrifice. The adder’s word is law. When Eve is forced into the world beyond the Isle her faith and love are tested by unexpected friendships that make her question everything. As she begins to see through the adder’s macabre fictions, the world Eve knows collapses. Does she lose her humanity with her belief? Does it drive her to kill?
