prologue
Always good, but never the best.
That's how Lina Short always felt. Pewter medal. Shortest trophy. Standing next to the podium.
She always had to have a smile on her face when she recieved them. Nana said she was incredibly lucky to be able to swim, and plus, Lina tried hard, and medals weren't what swimming was about. Lina thought different. What was the good of swimming if you don't win something. That's why Lina swam. To win.
Lina had a swim meet. She swam fast, but not fast enough. Three people touched the wall before her. Three people stood on the podium. One stood on the ground.
When Lina arrived home, she decided she had a curse. So she got on her bike and went to the library.
"Do you have any books about witches?"
