Look at this prefatory info the author provides for her book above:
This is the story of monsters and what they do to those who love them, those who fear them, and those who are simply in the wrong place at the wrong time. Or, from a different perspective, those who are in the right place at the right time. Serendipity is just as cruel as it is kind.
This book is dedicated to anyone who has ever loved a monster.
Are you listening, ZodWallop?
