Clara & the Devil: Vol. 1: A thrilling, sultry and beautifully illustrated fantasy graphic novel

He’s tall, dark and infernal. She’s ready to be corrupted . . .

A deliciously dark tale of Faustian bargains and seduction, Clara & the Devil is a graphic novel from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Masters of Death, Olivie Blake and fan-favourite artist Little Chmura.

Clara thought she had the rest of her life figured out. But when an unusual tourist – tall, dark, and satanic – comes to town, Clara’s careful plans start to unravel fast. She thought she’d graduate college with the support of her best friend, Jonah. Then she’d marry her adoring boyfriend, work at her local library and settle down in her small seaside hometown. But now things seem far from simple.

And even while the stranger, who openly calls himself the devil, strikes up a situationship with Jonah, he continues to tempt Clara with reckless talk of power, ambition, and lust. Over the course of one sultry summer, tensions between Clara, Jonah and the devil mount to an intolerable degree. Clara is forced to confront the desires she’s kept secret her whole life, even from herself.

This mesmerizing, darkly romantic graphic novel kicks off a sultry series that explores artistry and power through the temptation of the seven deadly sins.
