The remarkable new adult fantasy from the author of THE SPIDERWICK CHRONICLES about magic in our world and the cost of having it.
It's Cassel's curse. The memories of the fourteen-year-old girl he killed haunted him. School life is a never-ending struggle. Worse than life at home. Nobody in the house will ever forget that Cassel is a murderer. Nobody in the house will ever forget that he is not a magician.
One of the top five American criminal families is Cassel's family. Since magic was outlawed in 1929, those who practice it have been forced into the shadows and into criminality. And while times have been difficult, people still need their touch, their curses, their magical kills, and their transformations. His mother is incarcerated, his brothers hate him for being the only member of the family incapable of using magic, and his grandfather has been forced to drink excessively.
However, Cassel is about to inherit a family secret that lies at its core. The fact is that it's terrifying.
The White Cat is a magnificent book about a magically altered world. Though just 1% of people in this planet are capable of magic, they have the ability to conjure nightmares.
