About This Book

A layered mystery traces a purported family curse affecting successive generations, beginning with a sudden death and financial collapse that propels a young man into a web of eerie sightings, unexplained horrors, and domestic scandal. The narrative alternates immediate strange incidents with later revelations about marriages, divorce, secret pasts, and contested inheritances, with episodes set in coastal villages, a convent school, and an isolated bungalow. Fragmentary accounts, visions, and shifting narrators gradually expose motives and connections, culminating in the unravelling of the household secret and the consequences for those entangled in it.
