It's doing a lot of classic sci-fi writing; barely any character building, semi-big ideas it wants to get to but not the means to tell the story to get there.
If you want to do psychological horror with people's minds being altered, we need a bit more groundwork to show who they are to see what they are turning into.
Same with the plot, it starts off running, sprinting. Prose is okay, sometimes quite good.

Not too convinced yet.
I like the Yucatan setting, that's cool, but there very little tension being build and zero foundation being made for any of it to make technical sense. I hope we're meant to feel this grasping for reason. I am sure we're not meant to feel like this stale.
