| book description |

'A modern Gothic novel unlike any other, about love and loss echoing through the ages. Sad, sweet, funny and hopeful' - Emilia Hart, bestselling author of Weyward and The Sirens 'Did your mother ever tell you about the curse?' Spoken by her dying aunt, these were the words that would come to define Cammy's life. As a teenager, Cammy dismissed the warning that the women in her family were doomed to lose the ones they love, writing it off as nothing more than a family myth. But when, in her late twenties, her new boyfriend is struck by a car, guilt consumes Cammy, and she begins to wonder: could the curse be real? Desperate for answers, she returns to her aunt's secluded house and begins to uncover the tangled history of her ancestors - a tragic lineage of women marked by love and loss. As she sifts through diaries, letters, and paintings, Cammy must decide: is she doomed by a fate she can't escape, or are there answers buried in the secrets of the women who came before her? 'An original yet entirely universal story - sweeping in its scale, yet sweet-tempered, moving, and just the right amount of spooky. I loved it' - Samuel Burr author of The Fellowship of Puzzlemakers 'Love Is a Curse uses Gothic so cleverly. I binged the ending in one sitting and was absolutely gripped (and may have had a tear or two in my eye!)' - Sarah Brooks author of The Cautious Traveller's Guide to the Wasteland
