Every October, seventeen-year-old Cara's family inexplicably experiences accidents. This year is supposed to be the worst, but not in the way everyone expects. Along with the usual bumps and bruises, family secrets are uncovered, and Cara finally learns the tragic origins of her family's curse. Set in Ireland, magic and reality twist together in a poignant debut about secrets, ghosts, and love.
