Publisher Description
Office cleaner Rania Algafari never asked to be different, and when she escaped the war in Syria and moved to England, her only goal was to live her life in peace. Get up, go to work, avoid talking to the dead—that sort of thing.
But not everyone dies quietly, and Rania’s soon being pestered by one ghost, blackmailed by another, and distracted by a handsome private investigator who has his own reasons for wanting to solve a particularly gruesome murder.
While Will Lawson doesn’t mind using unorthodox methods to crack a case, he’s never had to contact his witnesses via a seance before. But the clock is ticking, and Will and his unlikely sidekicks need to hunt down a killer before he’s dispatched to join the spirit world himself.
Cursed is a slow-burn supernatural romantic suspense novel with a gutsy heroine and a hero who falls first. The Electi series is set in the real world with a few ghosts thrown in for good measure—each book has a guaranteed HEA and can be read as a standalone.
Customer Reviews
Electi Series -Cursed
In this first book in Elise’s new Electi series, the reader is drawn into the supernatural world. It’s a new area for Elise, but she still nails it! Her portrayal of the ghosts are so lifelike (haha) and funny, and at the same time the burden of the main character Raini’s past and present and the way she tries to deal with that, makes it impossible not to like her. The way Elise makes all her characters come to life - whether they’re living or dead, is fantastic! The plot has the perfect amount of twists and suspense that you can never really figure out who the culprit are.
And of course there’s the inevitable humorous elements that I just love:
I got a racing car. Will leaned over and peered at it.
“Cute. Want to swap for a polar bear?”
“Because you think you’re Lewis Hamilton?”
“More that you can be a little frosty.”
Personally, I can’t wait for the next book in this new series.
I received a free copy of this book in return for an honest review.
