Five women have died. The killer leaves no fingerprints or DNA. The police are baffled. In a world where only women use magic, and men who know it seek to destroy them, three broken young women—one cursed, one hunted, and one seeking revenge—team up to track down and take down a brutal supernatural killer. Jude Wolf is rich as sin and beautiful as the devil. But she's also cursed. Her immortal soul is bound to a malevolent demon, and she wants to be rid of that once and for all. What Jude needs is a curse writer, and she believes the string of dead women, all of whom she suspects are manipulating magic, might lead her to one. Zara Jones has also been tracking the murders since their inception. Her older sister was the killer's first victim. Zara doesn't just want revenge; she wants to find a way to bring her sister back. What Zara needs is a witch, a warlock, a warlock—in fact, what Zara needs is a curse writer. In the fifth victim's apartment, Jude and Zara meet by chance, and there they find a clue that connects them: a strange business card bearing three words: Emer Byrne. Writer of Curses.
