Review of 'The white cat' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

Awesome magic system, I especially liked that it actually was a book about a crime syndicate that happens to be able to do magic, as opposed to a magic setting, which contains a crime story.

This was a very quick read, I could have finished it in a day, and it was really gripping. I do like stories about conmen, and the magic just gave it an extra twist I love.
