Two years later, her guilt over her mothers condition keeps her tethered to the island, relegated to using her mothers legacy as St. Virgils most talented (and most feared) psychic to con desperate islanders and gullible tourists with useless talismans and phony protection rituals. But when one of those tourists ends up at the center of a string of strange murders, the truth that Selina has been denying can no longer be avoided: There is evil lurking in the forests that surround St. Virgil. Another thing that cant be avoided? Selinas now ex-boyfriend, Gabriel, whos returned home for the first time since Selina broke up with him.
Desperate to put an end to the killings and claim justice for Selinas parents, these two former lovers must race to find answers. But darkness is no fool. And evil bides its time.
