Everyone dreams of being someone else, but for teenaged
triplets Melinda, Teri and Alexa Reid, the sentiment takes on a more literal
meaning when they are transported into other people's bodies while they sleep.
As the sisters embark on their final year of high school, each
has been having vivid dreams of events and emotions happening in lives not their
own – but all from a victim's point of view. Melinda feels an instant attraction
to one of her classmates, but fears for the girl's safety when she begins to
have nightmares involving a man's frequent visits to her bedroom. Teri becomes
more withdrawn and depressed each day, but it's not until she meets another
cutter at school that she realizes her problems are not hers alone. And Alexa
just wants to spend more private time with her boyfriend, until she endures
visions of another boy being brutally bullied by some of their
schoolmates.
When one sister has a vision while she is awake, the girls
learn that they are Furies – ancient creatures believed by most to be only a
myth. Even more troubling is the discovery that a Fury's visions will only
increase in intensity until their wrath is invoked, perpetrators are punished,
and justice for the victims has been done.
SUFFER THE FURY tackles some universal issues like sex,
bullying and suicide, but ultimately it is a story about family and friendship,
which transcends the norm by adding a modern supernatural twist to an ancient
myth come to life.
