White Cat: The first book in the spellbinding Curse Workers series by the No. 1 Sunday Times bestselling author of The Cruel Prince

Holly Black

Meet the Curse Workers - the fan favourite urban fantasy trilogy by global phenomenon Holly Black - now reborn in these unmissable new editions with stunning reimagined covers and updated texts never before published in the UK!

Cassel comes from a family of curse workers - wielders of a dark magic with the power to change your emotions, your memories, even your luck, by the slightest touch of their hands. Since curse work was ruled illegal nearly a century ago, they're all criminals.

But not Cassel. He hasn't got the magic touch, so he's always been an outsider - the straight kid in a crooked family. As long as you ignore one small detail: he killed his best friend, Lila.

Now he's started sleepwalking, propelled into the night by terrifying dreams about a white cat that wants to tell him something. As Cassel begins to suspect he's part of a huge con game, he realises the only way to find out the truth is to outcon the conmen.

Murder mystery meets urban fantasy in the spellbinding world of the Curse Workers, where a single touch can bring love - or death - and your dreams might be more real than your memories. Brimming with dark magic, jaw-dropping twists, and a dash of romance, this iconic series is perfect for fans of Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo and Vicious by V. E. Schwab.
