Jerome McGinn, a Michigan native and a Specs Howard School of Media Arts graduate, is thrilled to announce the launch of his debut book, Al Ana’s Curse – a gripping adventure set in the small Northern Michigan town of Cheboygan.

The narrative follows Adean O’Connor, a teenager whose curiosity and bravery lead him and his friends into a centuries-old battle against a malevolent force. When their small town becomes plagued by mysterious events, the group uncovers the dark secrets lurking beneath Chook River. Al Ana, an ancient demon with a sinister agenda, pushes them to confront their deepest fears to save their community. With time running out and the fate of Cheboygan hanging in the balance, the teens must rally their courage and face the evil forces threatening their town.

Combining suspense, horror, and an exploration of strong friendships, McGinn’s debut book pulls readers into a heart-pounding adventure that showcases the triumph of bravery and unity in the face of unimaginable danger.

McGinn’s masterful storytelling and commitment to creating a family-friendly read have resonated with early readers. Shawna Hamptom of Magic Words Editing says, “I found myself delighted multiple times by your excellent metaphors and narrative expressions and loved the growth Aedan and his friends experienced from the beginning of the story to the end. You have an engaging, heartwarming tale on your hands, one that I know will find many happy readers.”

Beyond the suspense and the excitement, Al Ana’s Curse holds a deeper, more personal purpose. McGinn says the novel is a way to connect with his own children.

“Through the pages of this book, I wanted to share the stories that are constantly swirling around in my head, personal experiences, and life lessons learned in a way that they could relate to and find comfort in,” said McGinn. “By being open about my own vulnerabilities and triumphs, I hope to inspire them to embrace their true selves without fear or hesitation.”

As he shares his own journey through the eyes of his characters, McGinn hopes to inspire readers of all ages to embrace their individualities and find strength in vulnerability.

Al Ana’s Curse is now available on Amazon in paperback, eBook, and hardcover formats. To learn more, please visit https://jeromemcginn.com/.
