Bookroo's summary

Zoe scoffs at superstition until a carnival fortune-teller's necklace unleashes chaos in her life. Her bike spins out of control, fires ignite mysteriously, and threatening messages flood in. With the carnival vanished, Zoe and her friend Mia must unravel the curse's mystery before it's too late. Will they find a way to break the spell, or is Zoe doomed to a fate she never believed in?

From the publisher

Zoe’s never been superstitious, so when she and her best friend Mia have their fortunes read at a carnival, she doesn’t take it seriously. In fact, Zoe mocks the fortune-teller. But the woman gives Zoe a necklace to seal her fortune, and as soon as Zoe puts it on, unexplained things begin to happen to her. Her bike spins out of control, a fire starts in the oven when it isn’t on, and Zoe begins receiving threatening texts and emails. The necklace must be cursed! But when Zoe and Mia return to the site of the carnival, it’s gone! Can they break the curse before something terrible happens?
