1) Cursed

Claire is 21 year old woman who has spent most of her life going in and out of psychiatric wards since her parents committed her when she was 6 years old. She can see and speak with the dead. No-one believed her as a child and as an adult she tries to block them out using medication and regularly visiting Dr Mallard her psychiatrist. This is until Louisa, a powerful Psychic, is murdered and her only hope for her killer being brought to justice lies in Claire’s hands. After trying hard to ignore Louisa, Claire finally gives in when Louisa threatens to do an impression of Patrick Swayze. The two of them make a deal, that if Claire can expose her killer and bring him to justice then Louisa will do all she can to get The Powers That Be to remove Claire's gift. Reluctant at first, it is Louisa’s pure determination and faith in Claire that she finally starts to except the gift she has been given. Unfortunately they have to ask the help of DS Morgan who is an atheist when it comes to believing in ghosts and the afterlife, even though he has recently lost his wife and daughter in a tragic accident. He helps them bring Louisa's killer to justice but tries to arrest Claire first because she seems to know so much but will say very little. Louisa and Claire work together to convince DS Morgan of Claire's abilities, leaving him slightly confused and terrified of the whole thing. At the end Louisa returns for a final time to see Claire - she has come to take her powers away...
