About the book: 2024 / Every resident of Reddish risks being damned. Any stranger is suspect. The egg of the curse matures in the soul of the curser, saturated with hatred until he is ready to bring it down on the victim. And then the damned has only one chance of salvation. Kellen has the ability to unravel curses. So he saved Nettle, who had been turned into a heron, and returned her to her human form. Now they travel together across Reddish, saving residents. One day, someone curses Kellen himself, and all suspicion falls on Nettle... What if his unique gift is actually a curse?
