For a quarter and your silence, the Bestiary is yours to enter... But you may never leave.
Karen was a child when Doctor Cromwell stole everything. She followed her parents to his tent and raced away alone, haunted by the monstrous things she witnessed and the twisted power that commanded them. She has spent her life in pursuit of the man who stole everything from her.
Now, thanks to private investigator Cal Leverone, her revenge is finally within reach.
But Doctor Cromwell is no ordinary predator. His words sculpt flesh more deftly than any scalpel. Wonder is his art-and either Karen or Cal could become his next canvas. Together they'll discover that monsters aren't merely born. They're made. And in the Bestiary, the line between hunter and exhibit has never been thinner.
Will Karen claim her vengeance, or become the Bestiary's next attraction?
A dark, suspenseful horror novel featuring body horror and body transformation, a strong female protagonist driven by grief and revenge, and a manipulative villain unlike anything in modern creature horror fiction.
Readers of Thomas Ligotti, Joe Hill, and Clive Barker will find a nightmarish companion in Bestiary.
Proudly represented by Torrid Waters, a division of Crystal Lake Publishing-Where Stories Come Alive!
