Evil Was a Child Once - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

I should warn you: I'm bad luck.

The Library of Strange and Unusual Things in Virtue, California, holds the key to lifting twelve-year-old Evil Mather’s curse: the long-lost diary of her great-great-great grandfather, Cotton Mather, cursed by a witch in the 17th century. When Evil's emotions run high, this inherited witch’s curse makes her sketch people’s worst nightmares. Then, her sketches come true.

Evil's father, the Reverend Stanley Mather, insists he must find her cure in the Cotton diary by a historical Mather day, just seven days away, or Evil might be cursed forever.

At The Library, Evil meets Davey, a boy traumatized by the recent loss of his own father in a strange connection to Cotton's diary. As they uncover secrets about each other and The Library itself, Davey and Evil stumble upon something so shocking that she questions the witch's curse, the cure, and what her father raised her to believe. What neither Evil nor Davey realize is how complicated and painful the truth can really be.

If you like Stranger Things, Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children series, or the haunting history of the Salem Witch Trials, don't wait to read this dark contemporary fantasy.
