The Curse

Demon hunter Marie Lejour must choose between freeing herself from her curse or protecting the ones she loves in the first installment of this new urban fantasy series. Marie is a history teacher in the suburbs of Paris. She has a family to take care of and a curriculum to oversee, but when Lucien, her agent, requests her to chase a group of succubi intent on reigning over the Parisian nightlife without Hell's authorization, she has no choice but to obey.Marie is not the obeying kind and will do anything, with the help of her grandfather to get rid of the curse that her family fell under and thus, escape Hell's claws. Being a hitwoman is one thing, but a hitwoman for Hell? No, thanks.Marie accepts the mission but realizes soon enough that she will need to use her power if she wants to get rid of the succubi. Using the power means feeding it and strengthening the curse. Not using the power means leaving innocent people to suffer. Marie Lejour sees no other choice but to combine forces with her agent for one last fight. She knows he will try to prevent her from getting rid of the curse. That is, if they survive the mission.
