David Kallas is seventeen, and pretty much obsessed with classmate Ariana. After a mild earthquake brings them momentarily closer, David finds himself agreeing to join the Yearbook staff in order to spend time with Ariana.David is on his way to the printers one night when he comes across a dead body - he freaks and flees home, where he has a strange dream about someone named Mark. He begins to dig around for information - and realises that in 1950, a similar earthquake sparked the beginning of a spate of high-school murders. Are his classmates in danger? Can David find out what's going on before he or Ariana are put in serious danger? And what do his dreams mean? I liked this a lot. I liked David's voice - he was sarcastic, quick-witted and funny. The actual plot was completely daft, but this is Point Horror, not Stephen King, so that can be forgiven. I couldn't have told you how this would end in a million years, so there's no way you could ever say this was predictable!I did think one thing was really funny, but I'll put it in a spoiler so I don't give anything away.(view spoiler)[ When we get back to Mark in 2016, I actually laughed out loud at the guy saying "we'll fax you over a holo of the man right away" - there's a missed opportunity if ever I read one. Bring back fax machines! (hide spoiler)]
