Publisher's summary

Things are quiet in the morning, especially in an unassuming town like Aledale. When sixteen-year-old Jan (often referred to as “Jinx”) and her best friend Shelley attempt to catch low tide early in the morning at the local cove, Jan uncovers a little box with a mermaid carved into the lid, adorned with shining emerald eyes and a mysterious message and locket inside. After putting the necklace on, Jan begins to experience painful and unsettling episodes that leave her floundering for an explanation. Accompanied with the unrelenting desire to keep the locket close, Jan drags Shelley on a search for clues as to whom the necklace and box belong to. As they fall further into the intricate web spun by the people trying to get back what they claim is theirs, Jan and Shelley learn about a peculiar legend and why what they found needs to fall into the right hands. But not all hands are the right ones, and not all secrets can be kept. After all, some things are predestined to be jinxed.

Astounding mix of classic mystery/fantasy-thriller

A great book by Magner and equally impressive narration job by DuBois. Jinx is a shift in tone from Magner's second book- it leaves behind the eeriness of the underground moon and instead hones in on the mysteriousness/thrills of a classic mystery blended with fantasy-thriller. DuBois does an incredible job with the characters, especially given the intensity of some of the latter scenes. Blew through this one in two days because I was so hooked.

Fantastic listen

Great listen! The storyline is fantastic and the narrator does a really good job. I listened to another audiobook by this narrator and author and enjoyed it, and this one is just as good if not better, especially with the range of voices the narrator is able to do. Story+narration: 4.5 rounded to 5.
