Publisher Description
Eli and Dag survived a monster.
Two monsters, in fact.
A year later, though, they're still trying to settle into a 'regular' life. Dag is working hard in school. It's not going great. Eli is working hard at…being a better Eli. He's eating right. Most of the time. He's thinking about exercise in healthy ways. He's ok with how he looks, as long as he doesn't walk past any mirrors.
He goes out some nights, though. He goes across the lake, back to Bragg, where the monsters were. And he's not sure why. He's not sure what keeps calling him back.
When a woman is brutally murdered and an eyewitness claims to have seen the killer transform into a mysterious light, Eli and Dag are forced to set aside their own problems and face a difficult truth: there is another monster out there. Worse, there doesn't seem to be anybody else who can stop it from killing again.
But not all monsters are the same, as Eli and Dag discover. And the most dangerous monster might be the one who can give you what you've always wanted.
Customer Reviews
Dag & Eli’s adventure in the Louisiana Bayou continues
Dag has resigned from his job at the DuPage Parish Sheriff’s office and is now pursuing a degree
in Marine Biology. Eli now lives with his boyfriend—or whatever they were calling it—
struggles to put the brutal attack from Richard, his former lover/monster, who nearly killed him.
It doesn’t help that a man from Dag’s past shows up, wanting to repay a debt and break them up,
if he can.
Gregory Ashes poetic descriptions of the landscape and his natural instinct for suspense plunges
us into this tale full of Creole legends and danger. Set near New Orleans, our protagonists, Dag
and Eli discover, to their horror, that there may be more Hashoks (vampiric swamp creatures that
feed off the suffering of others) in the area that they caused the death of an abused wife.
But not everything is as it appears to be.
It’s much, much worse.
