Inhaltsangabe

A homecoming queen and a bad-boy loner team up to break a generational curse in this YA supernatural horror from a talented Egyptian American voice.

Seventeen-year-old Mina Mansour has always longed to know where she comes from. But anytime she asks her father questions about Egypt--or about her mother's mysterious death--he struggles to open up.

Determined to learn about her roots, Mina secretly travels from the small California town she calls home to the crumbling manor in the outskirts of Alexandria where her mother grew up. But when Mina returns, she doesn’t come back alone.

A sinister entity follows Mina home from Egypt, intent on seeing her dead and capable of turning everyone she knows violently against her. Isolated and fighting for her life, Mina must seek help from an unlikely ally: Jesse Talbot, resident bad boy of the senior class and the only person who proves immune to being possessed. Jesse would rather floss with barbed wire than team up with social butterfly Mina, but he doesn’t exactly have a choice—after all, he’s running from family secrets of his own.

As Mina and Jesse dig deeper into Mina's family lore, they uncover a bloody debt that must be brought to an end if they hope to save their town from the eldritch entity who has laid claim to her soul.

A chilling tale of supernatural possession and generational trauma that culminates in a shocking and unforgettable twist ending!
