It’s a perfect beach day, or so thought the family, young couple, a few tourists, and a refugee who all end up in the same secluded, idyllic cove filled with rock pools and sandy shore, encircled by green, densely vegetated cliffs.But this utopia hides a dark secret.First there is the dead body of a woman found floating in the crystal-clear water.Then there is the odd fact that all the children are aging rapidly. Soon everybody is growing older—every half hour—and there doesn’t seem to be any way out of the cove. Levy’s dramatic storytelling works seamlessly with Peeters’s sinister art to create a profoundly disturbing and fantastical mystery.

Review of 'Sandcastle Writer Pierre Oscar Levy' on 'Goodreads'

Overall I really enjoyed this book. It reminded me a lot of an episode of the Twilight Zone. I am still in its thrall long after I turned the last page.

The artwork was very intricate and expressive. The characters go through a lot of subtle changes throughout the book and so detail was of the utmost importance. You can tell a lot of thought and skill went into this book.
