About the book
August's brother has gone missing before starting his second year of college. While others believe he simply couldn't handle the stress, August is convinced that something more sinister is at play. With their mother also recently disappearing, August knows her brother wouldn't leave voluntarily.
The only clue he left behind is a note urging her to protect their family and stay safe. After being attacked by a monstrous creature, August realizes her brother is in grave danger.
Her only hope lies with Virgil Hawthorne, a knowledgeable individual with a connection to the creature. He reveals that he is one of them and risks losing his humanity if he doesn't find a partner to control his true nature. In exchange for August joining his society and becoming his partner, Virgil promises to help her find her brother.
August must now compete for a spot in the society while coming to terms with the existence of monsters. She must learn to master her newfound abilities in order to save her brother.
