✨THE SECRET IS OUT✨

i’m delighted to announce my debut novel, THE GAME OF OATHS, will be published by Walker Books and Candlewick Press! watch the bookshelves spring 2026 :)
A screenshot of a book deal announcement that reads: “Walker Books has bought a debut “high-stakes” historical YA fantasy set in a Belle Époque Paris magical circus. Fiction commissioning editor Emily McDonnell bought world all-language rights to Californian SC Bandreddi’s The Game of Oaths from Catherine Cho at Paper Literary. Walker will publish with US sister company Candlewick Press in May 2026, with a “spectacular” joined-up marketing and PR campaign.”
