Description
Curse weaver Kennedy Bennett has re-settled into her hometown and opened a shop selling previously hexed antiques. When she fails to win an online auction for a notorious cursed painting, Aiden Connolly swoops in to buy it for her. Crying Girl is one of a quartet of haunted legendary paintings, each with its own deadly curse. Kennedy knows that the "ghosts" are actually curses - fatal ones. The paintings have been missing for years, and Kennedy is thrilled at the chance to uncurse one... until Crying Girl disappears before they can collect it. It soon becomes clear that the painting hasn't been randomly whisked out of their reach. Someone used it to lure them in, and now Kennedy and Aiden are trapped in a trap from which there's no escape. Either the thief gets what they want, or the four paintings will find their way back into the world, unleashing deadly chaos on those who dare to possess them.
