Inspector Joan Arceneaux is on the hunt. Fresh off her promotion, a new case with a strange murder finds itself on her desk. So does an odd diary recounting a young girl's encounter with a sinister presence. As days march on, bodies pile up, offering little indication of whether the culprit is a deranged human or an otherworldly creature. Meanwhile, the details of the case, the diary, and Joan's own haunting past start to seep into her dreams, gradually blending with her waking reality. In this gothic horror tale, "Accursed Hunt" forces both Inspector and reader to question what is real and what exists only in Joan's tormented mind as she navigates a treacherous path that tests her investigative skills, challenges her faith, unearths her personal demons, and threatens her very sanity.
