This is the story of a l6th century curse. Some people say a curse can only harm you if you believe it, and Cathy Derwin was one of those who didn't believe it. But the evil curse spoken by Tobias Spry, as he was being burnt to death all those centuries ago, was so strong, that her disbelief would be futile against its evil power. One by one her ancestors had succumbed to the curse as it pursued them through the centuries, and now it was her time to face the evil curse of Tobias Spry.
