Monster: A Novel

Some doors shouldn't be opened. Some labyrinths don't let you go.

Morrigan just wanted a break — from failed auditions, endless shifts at the coffee house, and the slow grind of dreams slipping away. A spontaneous hiking trip with Sean feels like the best decision she's made in years. Until the storm. Until the detour. Until the ancient stone labyrinth hidden deep in the canyon. And until the kitten. Adorable, wide-eyed, and mysteriously attached to Morrigan, Monster shouldn't be anything more than a surprise stowaway from the woods. But the shadows start moving differently after the trip. When Sean is dragged into a web of violence and impossible truths, he crosses paths with Danny — a grizzled stranger who insists the labyrinth marked them, and something ancient has followed them home.
