Imagine a world where people have the power to change your emotions, your memories, your luck, with just a touch of their hands.

Unable to fit in with his family of magical criminals, Cassel’s worked hard to build a normal life for himself. Well, as normal as he can, considering he killed his crush, Lila when he was fourteen.  But that was years ago, his family covered it up, and now Cassel is almost ordinary.  But then a sleepwalking incident gets Cassel kicked out of his boarding school and he has nowhere to go but home.  There, he starts to believe someone is stealing his memories. But how do you solve a mystery when you can’t remember what it is?

This thriller has both mobsters and magic; you won’t want to miss it!
