Unsuspecting
Rick Summers had simply gone to the cemetery to visit the
graves of his mother and sister, killed in a
car accident years earlier. He had the cabbie wait for him.
But when he got back into the taxi, he didn’t have the
same driver. His new chauffeur was a re-animated corpse. And
he was about to take a drive into hell.
The doors to hell
open in the house of his ex-lover, Katarina, where he is
delivered by his not-so-sweet smelling driver.
Rick learns that Katarina is missing and has been recently
plagued by a stalker. That’s just the beginning of the
bad news. When the house changes right before their unbelieving
eyes, taking them somewhen and somewhere else, a horrifying
mystery begins to unfold. At its heart is unrequited love.
And Rick Summers.
It seems that several
lifetimes ago, Rick, then Thomas, spurned a woman named
Abigail. Not a good idea. Because Abigail’s
great at holding a grudge, some of her best friends are demons,
and she’s dedicated to keeping a promise she made to
Rick long, long ago. “Forever will I remember; forever
will you suffer …”
