Thank you so much to Chesapeake Press and Netgalley for the ebook to read and review.

Fina has moved from California to D.C. for her dads job as a congressman. When she goes into the crypt room one day she hears and sees something strange that she believes is the demon cat who sets a curse on her and her family as one bad thing after another happens. She decides to try and solve what it is and why it cursed her family.

I really loved the characters in this book and the way the mystery was so natural and just intertwined into real life. I loved trying to piece it together myself as I read it. It was a really great book.

Fina was such an amazing protagonist, you really felt so much for her and were rooting for her to find a way to fit in into her new life. She was struggling with so much change with her new life, and the loss of her mom and then having even less time with her a dad. She finds a best friend in a dog and gets entwined into a mystery of a curse giving cat.

Parts of this book were really sad and honestly made me feel so much for the characters they were all struggling, they all missed their mom/wife/daughter and those scene were really sad and emotional.

The mystery of the story was so interesting, it interconnected to the main storyline so perfectly and it was a realistic and natural mystery. Fina was going through a lot and was susceptible to being scared and found this unusual mystery in the crypt and though it scared her it gave her something to focus on. I really loved how she solved it and it was such a fun mystery.

I really enjoyed reading this book, it was so entertaining. The characters were all really interesting and worked perfectly together everyone had something they were dealing with and I loved that. I loved figuring out the mystery and getting the answers in the end.

I do recommend this book it’s a really fun mystery, with great characters, you get some educational lessons about congress and history. It had lots of heart and emotion and is a really easy and great read.
