Query letter ideas

Eighteen- year old Krystal Teigen must overcome the dark presence influencing her life, or she’ll forever be a prisoner to its will.  It’s too bad that as she makes steps towards a better existence it provokes mysterious forces to work against her.
Growing up in Normal, Illinois proved to be ironic as Krystal never was. She can’t shake the ghostly feeling looming around her. When her family falls on hard times, she moves with them to Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, hoping it will make a difference. Instead, the troubling impression that has tormented her throughout her life follows her.
Krystal bumps into Boyd McLaws and remembers they were once caught kissing in the barn when they were children. Boyd seems more than eager to take up where they left off. But unexplainable accidents keep happening when they are together. A drunk driver slams into their truck and is heard telling the police that something took over. Krystal realizes she is the one who has placed Boyd at risk when a strange wind pushes him off a cliff during a hike. Bewildered, she loses the trail down the mountain to get help and encounters Seth. He claims to be her guard, sent to help her. Just when Krystal is making steps in the right direction, she makes new friends that get her in trouble with the local police. The officers enlist her to act as an informant to gain evidence on the drugs that are coming into their town. She is hesitant to do this, until she realizes her younger brother is being lured into the group. The situation becomes critical as she finds herself in a life and death situation.
As the plans for evil domination reveals themselves, Krystal must come to terms with why she matters so much to those beyond this life.
