Don't say it. Don't think it... Fifteen-year-old Dezzie has long heard from her mother that a curse hangs over their neglected apartment complex, befalling anyone who utters a single trigger word. Mom, having faced mental health struggles for years, refuses to tell Dezzie what the word is. And her older sister Hope insists that the only curses dominating the building are poverty and destructive decisions. But when several residents die within a few weeks and Dezzie learns more about the supposed curse from neighbors, she begins to wonder if maybe there really is something more in play than poverty-stricken cycles of negativity. With unexplainable occurrences piling up--including late-night knocks on the door, missing possessions, and eerie paintings appearing on the roof--Dezzie and her new friends are on a hunt for answers. Their quest leads to the discovery of shocking secrets and dark deeds hidden in the shadows. Can Dezzie and her friends survive the truth, or are they next in a lengthening line of victims? www.kmflanders.wordpress.com.
