Not the first chapter

Marinus, a 14-year-old boy has to go to a Welsh village by the coast to see family he doesn't know or care about. He thinks his summer will be boring, but when a mysterious woman appears in the village, people start disappearing and rumours start spreading. Maybe he won't have such a boring summer after all...

Family-friendly at the start but gets depressing a bit so 13+ readers please.
