A group of teens arrive at their familiar sleepaway camp, Opaque, hoping for everything to exceed expectations during their last summer. Friendships and romances dominate the lives of the campers, as the camp bubble protects them from the challenges of the real world. Slowly, their lives destabilize due to those around them, forcing each to choose how they will survive their last summer. That threat is only made more real when Octavius, an outsider among the unit, gets a horrid vision, painting a future where all at Opaque will die, only 927 hours away.
The story is told through the eyes of four characters: Autumn, a Mormon running from her past; Leo, who wishes to stop harming those around him; Silena, a girl driven to be true to herself alongside her lone friend; and Octavius, who predicts the death of them all.
927 Hours is a camp drama and supernatural thriller, telling the story of these four teens as they navigate their final, tumultuous summer. With this promise of death hovering over them, the novel explores how each character responds to such a threat, seeing how people can be stripped to their purest selves when so little time is left. Under Opaque's utopian spell, the campers are united with the hope that the temporary summer will last forever.
All they want is one perfect summer to give their time at Opaque a storybook ending. However, buried under their paradise is the promise that it will all, sooner or later, come crumbling down.
