'When 17 year old Alyssa Wood sees a murdered body she recognises in her boyfriend’s music clip, closely followed by frequent spine-chilling reminders of a sordid past she escaped, she has one week to save her enemy, save her spirit and save her sanity.
'Alyssa Woods’ past holds nothing but bad memories.
'After her ex boyfriend Noah commits suicide and her mom’s alcoholism sparks yet another psychotic episode, she flees Broadwater and heads to New York City to stay with her bohemian aunt, a Wicca High Priestess.
'Alyssa revels in the anonymity of a big city and her new life. Her grades climb, she has a new best friend, and a new guy, the sexy geek Ronan, a saxophonist who prefers jazz to pop.
'Her newfound peace is shattered when she sees a dead body in one of Ronan’s music clips - and she’s the only one who can see it.
'Worse, she recognizes the body. Murdered a week forward.
'Despite her family’s Wicca background, Alyssa doesn’t believe in the supernatural, but she’ll do whatever it takes to save her enemy, save her spirit and save her soul.' (Source: http://www.nicolamarsh.com/banish.html )
