Small-Town Yeti, Big-City Problems
Peaceful, unassuming Wylie Kang-a Yeti with an appreciation for more human creature comforts-lives a quiet life in his self-built sanctuary on the outskirts of Embarrass, Minnesota. But when violent dreams disturb his peace, and a series of strange murders plague the area, a Hunter comes to town, nosing after Wylie's trail.
Fleeing pursuit, Wylie packs up his truck and heads for the Twin Cities, hoping to lose himself in the urban jungle, only to find a thriving supernatural community.
Just as he begins to settle in-with the help of some new-found friends-he discovers the bloodshed has followed... as has the Hunter.
Can Wylie catch the killer, before the Hunter catches him?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Rosenberg (the Relicant Chronicles series) shifts effortlessly from epic fantasy to lighthearted paranormal thriller in this offbeat novel centering on a yeti trying to live peacefully among humans. The fierce-looking creature disguises his true nature in human clothes, adopts the name Wylie Kang, and finds a haven on the outskirts of a small Minnesota town. Wylie's content to fish, drink beer, and watch television (he prefers the original Magnum, PI to the reboot), but his peaceful existence is upended when a strange woman comes looking for him. Some people have been torn to shreds nearby, and the stranger considers Wylie a suspect. Believing her to be a hunter targeting "supernaturals," Wylie flees to the Twin Cities hoping to be less visible in an urban setting—only to be followed by his adversary. Aided by other supernatural beings, including goblins from the English-Scottish border known as Red Caps, Wylie works to stay alive and stop whatever creature is really responsible for the killings. Rosenberg's tongue-in-cheek approach charms, creating an endearing, hirsute hero. Readers are sure to be entertained.
