Lord of the Flies by William Goldberg

At the dawn of the next world war, a plane crashes on an uncharted island, stranding a group of schoolboys.

They attempt to forge their own society, failing, however, in the face of terror, sin and evil. And as order collapses, as strange howls echo in the night, as terror begins its reign, the hope of adventure seems as far from reality as the hope of being rescued. AGES 18+
