back of the book
Tessa and her sister Tricia are having the vacation of a lifetime in naughty New Orleans. They’ve partied on Bourbon Street until the wee hours; visited the famous cemeteries; wandered around the historic French Quarter; and visited the Voodoo Museum. They’ve even taken a tour of the haunted corners of the grand old city, led by a sexy, mustachioed guide in tall black boots.
But when they learn that their elegant old hotel was once a house of ill repute, and was ravaged by fire more than 100 years ago, resulting in the death of several women, something in the steamy night air changes. Tessa, who is not one to let her imagination run away with her, feels a chill, and can’t stop thinking about the mysterious tour guide. And when she peers out her window late one night, there he is...
inside
Catching her breath, she looked up and saw her sister standing there. Only — it wasn’t. Her face was pale, and her eyes — her eyes were the wrong color. They were jet black, with a soft glowing light coming from within them.
"You must remember. You must," she said in a voice that was not her own.
"Tricia?"
"Unless you remember, it was all for nothing," Tricia went on in that strange voice. Then she reached up, her hands clasping Tessa’s shoulders like claws. "Remember!" she shouted, shaking her violently, with surprising strength. "Remember, damn you!"
"Tricia!" Tessa planted her palms flat on her sister’s chest and shoved with everything in her. Tricia’s grip was broken, and she staggered backward.
"Remember," she whispered, and then she collapsed on the floor.
