About this ebook
Thomas Halyard created four decks of Tarot cards and put a curse on each. The curse attaches to anyone who owns a pack. An innocent school boy becomes owner of one of these packs, the Deadman Deck. He is told by the unhelpful and seemingly unsympathetic Magi, the witches and wizards of Australia, that he will die soon and that he should make the most of his time. But his fate is worse than they think and may end up destroying them all. He befriends a teenage witch and wizard who are battling the evil witch, Mary, who is terrorising his classmates.
But he finds himself drawn to their enemy, who is tired of the war and wishes only to surrender and live out her life, stripped of the magical powers, as an ordinary human being. He takes it on himself to help broker the deal for her surrender.
But when the Magi sabotage the deal he must decide whose side he is on.
This is the second book in The Four Curses of Thomas Halyard.
Content warning: descriptions of strong violence.
