Bookroo's summary

Max's world turns upside down when a mysterious substitute teacher arrives, wearing a necklace with his missing mother's hair. Desperate for answers, Max must confront the possibility that this teacher is linked to the demons who took his mom. As he delves deeper, Max faces a chilling challenge: can he get the truth from a demon and find his mother before it's too late? With seven redheaded women already missing, the stakes have never been higher. Will Max unravel the mystery, or will he become the next victim?
