Will her beloved twin, Celestine, be able to warn her in time? And even if she can, will Victoria Stitch listen?

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

The first book, Victoria Stitch: Bad and Glittering, was praised for its fraught sibling relationship and enticing illustrations (The Guardian). It offers gothic glam with glamorous sparkle and a fabulous anti-heroine, complemented by Harriet Muncaster's irresistible elfin artwork (BookTrust). The series appeals to fans of darker fantasy with divine illustrations and a captivating, stylish narrative that brings the magical Wiskling Wood vividly to life (Red Reading Hub).
