Imogen's ability to see the future does little to help her from a demon haunting. When ancient spirits come knocking, seeking re-entry into the human world, she struggles for answers. Yet, truths are easier to come by only after the spirits hijack her body. Imogen's gift makes her vulnerable to preternatural influences. Knowing this, she moves back to Graydon to start a new life. Her childhood friend, Rafe, seems to know more about her powers than she does. When another psychic foreshadows her death, she tries her damnedest to prevent it. Imogen's true test of character arises when she is forced to stop the body-thieving demons from destroying all of mankind. "Cursed" is a paranormal horror story fraught with surprises, humor, and old clichés turned on their heads. Readers hunting for a paranormal read with a Buffy-esque twist are sure to enjoy. *Featured on @fright 's "Top Paranormal Reads" list* (EDITING: tread lightly. Point out errors you notice)
