Does Nicholas remain untouched by evil?

i really enjoyed this book. when the "Fear" mansion is burnt down, no-one lives but Nora Goode, carrying the child of Daniel Fear. but then, against her own will, she is sent to an insane asylum, even though she isn't crazy. Nicholas is born and when he is old enough to leave his mum, he is to be taken away. But Nora escapes with Nicholas. Nora does not want any evil to touch her son, so starting a new life at Shadow Cove and changing her name to Nora Storm instead of Fear, she raises Nicholas. But when she dies, Nicholas still knows nothing of his father or the curse that ran through the Fear family. Going back to Shadyside to find his fortune, Nicholas meets Betsy and Ruth, both want to marry him. But he wants to marry Rosalyn, but Nicholas finds it hard to marry her with the events that occur. But in the mean time, why are his friends dying? Will Nicholas find the power he is looking for, or will the evil power of the Fear family reach him first?
