Waiting on Wednesday...Ten

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

My pick this week is Ten by Gretchen McNeil


Here is the Goodreads synopsis
And their doom comes swiftly. 
It was supposed to be the weekend of their lives—an exclusive house party on Henry Island. Best friends Meg and Minnie each have their reasons for being there (which involve T.J., the school’s most eligible bachelor) and look forward to three glorious days of boys, booze and fun-filled luxury. 
But what they expect is definitely not what they get, and what starts out as fun turns dark and twisted after the discovery of a DVD with a sinister message: Vengeance is mine. 
Suddenly people are dying, and with a storm raging, the teens are cut off the from the outside world. No electricity, no phones, no internet, and a ferry that isn’t scheduled to return for two days. As the deaths become more violent and the teens turn on each other, can Meg find the killer before more people die? Or is the killer closer to her than she could ever imagine?
This sounds awesomely creepy. I love good mysteries and it seems like a "locked room" scenario where the killer might be some one they know. Intriguing synopsis and creepy cover don't hurt either.

Expected release date - September 18, 2012

    Awesomely creepy is right!! I've heard great things about Gretchen's debut novel, Possess, so she's on my radar of authors to check out. And there is something about a creepy island + mysterious deaths that make me all kinds of excited haha. Fantastic choice!

    I haven't heard of this one. It does sound really good for readers who enjoy scary mysteries. I don't read many of those, so I'm not sure I'll pick this up.
    My WoW!

    I'm so going to read this. I love "locked room" mysteries, and this sounds similar to And There Were None by Agatha Christie. I loved that book.

    This reminds me of a TV show called Harper's Island - super creepy and I loved it. :D Definitely need a copy of TEN, too! :)
