Reborn as a black cat, bound to the clumsiest witch in school, and only she can hear you complain.
You died at your desk and woke up with whiskers — a small black cat, bound as familiar to Hazel
Mothwick, the most disastrous first-year witch at Bramblecott Academy. She can hear every word you say. Everyone
else just hears meowing.
Steady her wobbly spells, survive the snobby raven who runs the Familiars' Loft, and help Hazel pass her exams
before midwinter, all while sniffing out the curse that's been sabotaging her magic. Nine lives, one witch, and not
nearly enough patience to go round.
