About This Book

Maya's mother Catherine tried to escape in 1987.

She researched the curse, found others bound to similar entities, attempted a collective banishment. She failed.

Maya finds her mother's journals and the names of other cursed families—the Vessels, the Marchettis, the Oyelarans, the Kinosovas. Each bound to something called by a different name.

The entities aren't separate. They're one thing wearing many faces. "Mr. Thorne" is just a mask.

And the other families might be the only allies Maya has.

Catherine's failure wasn't weakness—it was incomplete knowledge. Maya has what her mother didn't: the truth about the enemy.
