An enchanting tale of magic, friendship and adventure for readers aged 9 and up – from bestselling author, Holly Webb.

And then Colette discovers the truth: her father is a famous maskmaker and a powerful magician. But when he’s ordered to create a mask that will bend others to its will, the magic becomes too strong for him to resist. Can Colette, with the help of a talking alley cat called Max, save him?
