Blacks Crackle

If you could look at people and see the evil within them, would you live your life differently? Would you become more careless or more discerning?
Her father is deteriorating after a stroke, but her husband is home alone, unemployed and disabled, so it might seem callous timing for Carly to take a trip to the Spanish mountain village of her childhood. However, it was here that she first encountered the Dark: an evil spirit that manifested in her friends and family, and which seems to have dogged her life ever since. Logically, these visions of black intent cannot be real, so retaliating with quotes from the Wicked Queen in Sleeping Beauty can't make the situation any worse. Her sister seems oblivious to the battle she has waged to keep her loved ones intact, and her father isn't best pleased when she employs fraud, deception and scandalous behaviour to keep the shadowy presence at bay. But each time she thinks she has gained the upper hand, another person falls victim to a series of disturbing accidents. She needs to unravel the real reason behind this fiend's appearance. But will she be able to face up to her weakness for delinquent behaviour and refute the Dark's hold on her?
