They All Fall Down by Rachel Howzell HallRead about the other entries on the list at Electric Lit.
When Miriam Macy receives a surprise invitation to join six strangers on a luxe private island off the coast of Mexico, she can’t believe her luck. Surrounded by miles of open water, though, she watches as a series of accidents takes down her fellow visitors one by one.
