Ten years ago, college student Quincy Carpenter went on
vacation with five friends and came back alone, the only
survivor of a horror movie–scale massacre. In an instant,
she became a member of a club no one wants to belong to—a
group of similar survivors known in the press as the Final
Girls: Lisa, who lost nine sorority sisters to a college
dropout's knife; Sam, who went up against the Sack Man
during her shift at the Nightlight Inn; and now Quincy,
who ran bleeding through the woods to escape Pine Cottage
and the man she refers to only as Him. The three girls are
all attempting to put their nightmares behind them and,
with that, one another. Despite the media's attempts, they
never meet.
Now, Quincy is doing well—maybe even great, thanks to her
Xanax prescription. She has a caring almost-fiancé, Jeff;
a popular baking blog; a beautiful apartment; and a
therapeutic presence in Coop, the police officer who saved
her life all those years ago. Her memory won’t even allow
her to recall the events of that night; the past is in the
past.
That is until Lisa, the first Final Girl, is found dead in
her bathtub, wrists slit; and Sam, the second Final Girl,
appears on Quincy's doorstep. Blowing through Quincy's
life like a whirlwind, Sam seems intent on making Quincy
relive the past, with increasingly dire consequences, all
of which makes Quincy question why Sam is really seeking
her out. And when new details about Lisa's death come to
light, Quincy's life becomes a race against time as she
tries to unravel Sam's truths from her lies, evade the
police and hungry reporters, and, most crucially, remember
what really happened at Pine Cottage, before what was
started ten years ago is finished.
