About The Book
J L Florence
In a beach community, the locals come together to honor a dead whale. However, their peaceful gathering takes a shocking turn when a wild teenager named Jacob tears out the whale’s eye, leaving everyone horrified. This act angers the locals, and in retaliation, Jacob curses them. Each person in the community experiences intense emotions and begins to question whether the curse is real or if their misfortune is merely a coincidence.
Jacob lives with his reclusive father, Sam, on a piece of land that holds both sacred ground where Jacob’s late mother is buried and a place where restless shadow spirits wander through the woods. When Jacob stumbles upon a book filled with spells, potions, and rituals related to these shadow spirits, it upsets Sam. Moreover, Jacob also convinces a young boy to join him in his mischievous escapades.
The situation becomes even more tense when the locals discover that twin girls have gone missing during a powerful storm known as a nor’easter. As they desperately search for the missing girls, they fear that Jacob might be responsible for their disappearance. Time becomes a critical factor as they race against it to find the girls and uncover the truth.
