The town of Maybrook is torn apart by the enigma of the disappearance of seventeen youngsters from the equivalent educational level who awoke and ventured out and ran into the darkness.

When the conclusion falls into place, it feels predictable yet exciting, ideally structured to refute any mutterings of letdown. However, after the scare factor, there are remaining uncertainties about why, precisely this story needed a multiple-POV ensemble approach.
