The Awakening (Oni)

    (Oni, 2004)
™ and © Neal Schaffer

This is a horror/suspense/mystery about a prestigious private school that only accepts beautiful young women for its student body. The downside is that the school is a haven for a series of brutal murders that are graphically displayed in this “graphic” novel. One of the students, Francesca, is about to discover the secrets behind the murders until she herself is attacked. She survives, but is injured so severely that she winds up in a coma. Will she wake up in time to reveal the truth before it’s too late? A very competently done and compelling story.
