Förlagets information

Beauty and the Beast meets The Shape of Water by the Nebula-award winning author of 'Open House on Haunted Hill'

'Stealthily funny, slyly smart, and remarkably touching' VERONICA ROTH, bestselling author of WHEN AMONG CROWS

'A heartfelt fable about disability and the possibility of reconciling conflicting needs through love and understanding' THE GUARDIAN

'Sweetly furious, darkly funny, and gruesomely wholesome. It's a love story for the unloved, a happily-ever-after with a higher-than-average body count. I just adored it' ALIX E. HARROW, author of STARLING HOUSE

"Do love stories often end this way?" "Why do you think it's over?"

Shesheshen has made a fatal mistake for a monster: she's fallen in love.

Shesheshen is a shapeshifter - one who is perfectly content to stay as an amorphous lump in her swamp unless impolite monster hunters invade intent on murdering her. Then, she meets warm-hearted Homily, who mistakes Shesheshen for a human like her.

But just as Shesheshen is about to confess her true identity, Homily reveals she's hunting the shapeshifting monster that supposedly cursed her family. Shesheshen didn't curse anyone, but to give them both a chance at happiness, she must figure out why Homily's family thinks she did - while surviving her toxic in-laws long enough to build a life with the woman she loves.

A glorious, funny, occasionally slightly violent love story which asks us to examine - and re-examine - the meaning of legacy, family and love.
