| Plot Summary of Jinx |
|---|
"Jen is in love with Charlie, they're best mates and they are very close. Charlie commits suicide by hanging himself. Jen is very depressed and emotional, but she has a close family to help her get through it all. She meets a guy named Ben, and they become great friends. He dies in a pub brawl and Jen starts to think that she is a Jinx. Every guy that she gets close to dies and she is upset by this. Jen finally gets her life back on track and she starts dating Hal, who was the guy that was in the brawl with Ben. Jen knows this but she does not blame Hal for it because he didn't intentially try to kill Ben."
