Are curses real?

After a toymaker magician gives a lecture at a collector’s club soiree, an important spell is stolen and a man is found strangled. The investigation into his murder leads India and Matt to the colorful and dangerous world of the Romany gypsy where curses are used as weapons against their enemies.

But nobody seems to know if curses are real or not.

As Matt and India close in on the killer, old foes bring trouble into their lives. With the threat of exposure hanging over London’s magicians, disaster is never far away. Then one fateful day, catastrophe strikes the Park Street household.

Captivating! I received the first 6 books through the free public library. If I had waited until the beginning of the new month, I would have received 7-12 for free as well. I could not wait. I am glad I did not. I hope this goes to film. The relationships in book 11 are distinct and rich.

Layered with motive

Magical toymakers vie to be the best in their trade, and to continue their lineage…. with deadly consequences.
India and Matt face more dangers from crafty magicians and powerful people, unknown shooters, and a strong family of gypsies. Willie has her fortune told. Garret’s book on magic is published. What will happen now??
This is a very entertaining, although somewhat predictable, series.
I hope more installments will be written after number 13.

Be careful whom you “toy” with….
