Beschreibung
Two sisters find a way to make themselves into witches . . . but what they don’t realize is that every time they perform a spell, they are one step closer to awakening evil.

“Reads like a modern version of The Craft.”—Booklist

“Blends the extraordinary and the everyday.”—School Library Journal
Beware the magic in the black book.

When Daniela and Liss stumbled on a way to transform themselves into witches, they didn’t realize that magic had an agenda of its own. That every time the friends cast a spell, they were one step closer to disaster.

If only they’d known, Johnny would never have been dragged away into the night, in the claws of a horrifying creature.

If only they’d known, Dan and Liss would still be best friends, same as they ever were, sad and lonely and stagnating in their small town. And Dan’s new best friend Alexa would be safe in LA, far away from the danger they’ve awoken.

If only they’d known that the magic was wicked.

If only.

Über den Autor
Sasha Laurens is originally from Northern California and has lived in New York and St. Petersburg, Russia. When she's not writing fiction and missing the West Coast, she is pursuing a PhD in political science on protest movements in authoritarian states.
Zusammenfassung
A CONTEMPORARY WITCHY THRILLER: This book combines the suspense and mystery of today's modern thrillers like The Cheerleaders and Karen McManus's bestselling books, and blends that with an eerie fantasy sensibility, like the cult-classic film The Craft and the dark magic of New York Times bestselling The Wicked Deep. It's the best of both worlds of what is working in our market.

WITCHES ARE HAVING A TV MOMENT: With the success of the hit Netflix series The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and the Charmed reboot, witches are back in the cultural consciousness in a very immediate way.

DEBUT AUTHOR WITH A CAPTIVATING VOICE: Snappy prose, clever writing, and an engaging voice propel the narrative forward. Sasha Laurens's debut is energetic and atmospheric, an auspicious start to her career as a YA author.

THE BEST KIND OF CREEPY: There are some elements of horror, a segment of our market that's growing, as seen by our own Danielle Vega. But there's no gore or blood or (too many) guts: just genuine, spine-tingling moments with some freaky characters, like the demon's proxy, who is best described as a creepy old bird lady.
