About this ebook
A new nightmare.
A deadly premonition.
After a horrifying vision of the future, Finnegan Quick must fix his fate before it finally catches up to him. A pulse-pounding horror story by Laugh Out Loud Book Award winner Larry Hayes.
By night, Finnegan Quick has horrible nightmares. By day, they come TRUE. Unfortunately for him, after dreaming his parents out of reality, his nightmares are the only hope he has of one day finding them again.
To discover the truth of his parents' disappearance, Finn investigates the paranormal with his best friends, Squid and Cass. Their only lead is a mysterious urban legend about a girl in Ireland whose body remained perfect, even after death. Rumour is, she was a banshee – a terrifying creature with the power of prophecy - whose unearthly scream, it was said, could drive anyone who heard it to instant madness.
That very night, Finn finds out why. In his dreams, he finds the banshee. He hears her scream and with it, sees a vision of the future.
Squid. His best friend. Face down in water, dead.
In the waking world, Finn is left with no choice: unravel the mystery of the Banshee's curse, or risk losing the only family he has left...
A creepy, page-turning read for horror fans everywhere. Scares GUARANTEED.
