Layla survived years of addiction, burying the most traumatic recollections of her past. She escaped Hell, slapped a tourniquet on her toxic memories, and found a measure of peace as a drummer in Las Vegas. Ten years later, she's finally moved on . . . until she's called home to Connecticut, a last plea from her dying mother.
Back to Blackpool, where her estranged family awaits alongside her old enemies. The trip awakens her inner demons, voices who warn that history may repeat itself. A new cycle of violence begins, echoing events Layla barely escaped once. The voices urge her to fight, reminding her of wrongs that were never made right. If she gives in, she may lose both her sanity and her soul - a steep price to save a family who'd given up on her once.
Layla's reached a crossroads, a choice between an insatiable thirst for vengeance or forgiveness for those who harmed her. But some crimes are unforgivable, and some wounds refuse to be forgotten.
Initial Reviews on Jennifer's Debut Novel:. . . revenge might be sweet, but what price are you willing to pay for it? The fact that Soucy manages to get you as riled up as Layla, then makes both you and her rethink things is truly magnificent stuff . . . this is one to take your time over. Despite the tragedy, despite the pain, you need to see what happens on the other side, as hard as it might be to get there.--Ben Walker, Kendall Reviews
I would highly recommend this book to readers who enjoy realistic drama, meticulous tales of horror, fantasy elements in a real world setting, or any combination of these three. . . an intriguing tale that will have them hooked until the final pages.--Gregory Austin, The Writing Lodge
Demon In Me was eloquently written, charged with poignant nostalgia and haunting realism.--Shanna Swenson, blogger and author of the Abundance series
