When a quartet of co-eds decide to reenact The Blue Lagoon on an abandoned Florida Key, they find more than just sex and sand is on the agenda. Stings turn out to play a part in their weekend as well. Lots and lots of stings. But those were just the beginning of the pain...
"Violet Lagoon" was originally planned as the prologue to John Everson's seventh novel Violet Eyes. It was first published as a standalone novelette in the collection Creeptych in 2010. When the novel was completed, the version that appears there was shortened and separated into both a prologue and flashback chapters. This is the full, original version of the novelette.
