Layla has rotten luck when it comes to love but the rest of her life is going well. ... Or at least it was. 

Layla Takanashi had everything she needed; a good job, a great best friend, and a nice apartment in the city.  A boyfriend would just be icing on the cake. But after a flop of a first date, Layla decides to drown her sorrows at a bar and ends up with something she never would have asked for. A death curse. 

Now Layla finds herself dying in a new way every day with no way to stop it.  She reaches out to Rhys Pembroke, the owner of a local occult bookstore, for help. But she soon finds out that he may be more than she bargained for.

But when the grief becomes unbearable, Wendy takes a dangerous path in search of closure: an ancient Babylonian ritual to contact the spirit of her mother. Desperate to hear her mother's voice one more time, Wendy performs the ritual-only to unleash something far darker and more malevolent than she ever anticipated. As the ritual goes horribly wrong, Wendy inadvertently invites an evil force into their lives. When her sister becomes the first victim of this unleashed power, Wendy is left shattered with guilt. But her sister's death is only the beginning. Dark forces start spreading across Ravenswood, and soon, more lives are lost because of Wendy's naive attempt to meddle with the supernatural. With her small town now gripped by terror, Wendy must confront the evil she unleashed, all while battling the growing whispers from beyond.
