The Cursed Manuscripts • Book 4
Bad Luck
What if bad luck wasn’t random?
Emily Carlton wants one night away from a life going nowhere. Instead, one reckless act of violence unleashes an ancient curse — and coincidence becomes deadly.

The story
Never tempt fate.
Emily Carlton is stuck. Stuck in a dead-end job. Stuck in a life going nowhere. Stuck watching everyone else move on without her.
So when the chance comes to reconnect with old friends for a beach party, she takes it. A few drinks. A few laughs. A chance to forget her problems for one night.
Then one reckless act of violence changes everything.
At first, the bad luck seems harmless. An accident here. A close call there. Nothing more than coincidence.
Then people start dying.
The curse grows stronger. The misfortunes become impossible. And Emily discovers that luck is not random at all.
It is hunting them. One by one.
To survive, Emily must uncover the truth behind the curse before every terrible possibility becomes inevitable.
The Cursed Manuscripts
Ten standalone nightmares. One cursed universe.
Each Cursed Manuscript tells a complete horror story, but all ten books belong to the same wider universe of impossible events, dark artefacts and ancient evils.
Book four of the curse
“You can’t hide from fate. You can’t outrun a curse. Luck always runs out eventually.”
Bad Luck turns coincidence into a predator: a supernatural horror story where every near miss only makes the next accident harder to survive.
