The funny thing about curses though, is sometimes they don’t want to be broken, and New Orleans at the end of August 2005 is no place for three kids on the run. Even with friends, the journey will be tough, especially when the police are looking for them, but Bobby knows a busted curse will mean his mom will wake up from her coma and all the wrong in his life will right itself. Reed dies when he touches her, the neighborhood bully lands in the ER, his foster mom could lose her license, and that fire he accidentally starts. Unfortunately, Bobby's curse puts everyone around him in jeopardy. But her aunt lives in New Orleans, four states away, and Bobby can’t bear to leave his unconscious mom behind. When Flyn, his foster home friend, does a tarot card reading, she dubs him hoodoo cursed, and claims the only one capable of breaking it is her voodoo priestess aunt.

The kind of curse that will explain away all the bad in his life. And not your everyday, mad-at-your-neighbor jinx, but a big, fat, hairy curse.
