Red Glove

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 always thought of himself as the only nonmagical member of a magical - and corrupt - family. But now he knows that his memories were being manipulated by his brothers. They wanted to hide his ability from him, because it's incredibly rare and very powerful. A touch of his hand can transform anyone into anything.

When his oldest brother is murdered, the Feds recruit him to help make sense of the only clue recorded at the crime scene - images of a woman in red gloves. But the mob is after him too and they know how valuable he could be to them. Cassel is going to have to stay one step ahead of both sides just to survive. But where can he turn when he can't trust anyone, least of all himself?

Murder mystery meets contemporary fantasy in the cutthroat world of the Curse Workers, where a single touch can bring love - or death - and your dreams might be truer than your memories. Brimming with high-stakes deception, 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.

Review

Witty, twisty, and impossible to put down, Holly Black's Curse Workers series delivers magical heists and a young conman who is as flawed as he is brilliant. This is the kind of story - full of delightful, daring narrative sleight of hand - that kept me guessing with every page and that I won't soon forget ― Leigh Bardugo
