Itâs spring break in the Outer Banks, and the islands are swarming with rich tourists. The last thing JJ and John B want to do is spend their week watching Kooks in action, so they plan a fishing getaway to the notoriously dangerous Frying Pan Shoalsânicknamed âGraveyard of the Atlanticâ for good reason.
  
Turns out they arenât the only adventure-seekers at sea. Soon after they set sail, the friends run into the captivating Savannah, who hitches a ride aboard the HMS Pogue when the weather worsens and her boyfriend leaves her stranded. As a violent storm sets in, the three realize the only place to safely ride out the squall is a creepy, abandoned hotel on the shoalsâ lighthouse platform. Or is it abandoned? It doesnât take long for the three teens to realize they may not be alone. . . .
Further complicating the life-or-death adventure is a mounting attraction between JJ and the secretive Savannahâthe closer JJ gets to her, the more he realizes heâs playing with fire. Even if they get out of the shoals alive, can a PogueâKook romance survive the high-stakes shores of the Outer Banks?

      Making a spring break trip to the Graveyard of the Atlantic, the nickname given to Frying Pan Shoals due to all the ships it's claimed, is probably not the best idea. But that's exactly what best friends JJ and John B do. JJ needs to escape from his abusive father, and John B needs a break from searching for his. When these two self-described Pogues, or working-class townies, living on the Outer Banks of North Carolina decide to escape their unsatisfying home lives by going on a fishing trip, they soon learn how dangerous the open water can be. When a large storm hits Frying Pan Shoals, the two boys and daredevil Savannah, a beautiful Kook (wealthy nonlocal) girl, get stranded on a deserted island with a dilapidated lighthouse while waiting out the storm. When a team of smugglers also seek refuge on the island, the unlikely trio discover they will have to fight for their lives. While touching on some serious subjects like abuse and ethics and narrowly missing a tired love-triangle trope, this lukewarm thriller is a familiar story of ill-conceived adventures, morally gray bad guys, and star-crossed lovers. Based on the Netflix drama, this plot-driven book serves as a fun companion to Outer Banks and will appeal to fans of the show. Main characters default to White. Though light on substance, this is an enjoyable, quick read. (Thriller. 14-18)
