Eli and Dag survived a monster. Two monsters, in fact.
A year later, though, theyāre still trying to settle into a regular life. Dag is working hard in school. Itās not going great. Eli is working hard atā¦being a better Eli. Heās eating right. Most of the time. Heās thinking about exercise in healthy ways. Heās okay with how he looks, as long as he doesnāt walk past any mirrors.
He goes out some nights, though. He goes across the lake, back to Bragg, where the monsters were. And heās not sure why. Heās 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 doesnāt 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 youāve always wanted.
