Il mostro si presenta a Conor sette minuti dopo la mezzanotte. Puntuale. Ma non è il mostro che Conor si aspettava, l'orribile incubo fatto quando sua madre ha iniziato le cure mediche. Questo mostro è diverso. È un albero. Antico come una storia perduta. Selvaggio come una storia indomabile. E vuole da Conor la cosa più pericolosa di tutte. La verità.

Conor has the same dream every night, ever since his mother fell ill, ever since she started the treatments that don't quite seem to be working. But tonight is different.

Bestselling novelist Patrick Ness takes the final idea of the late, award-winning writer Siobhan Dowd and weaves a heartbreaking tale of mischief, healing and above all, the courage it takes to survive.
Thirteen-year-old Conor awakens one night to find a monster outside his bedroom window, but not the one from the recurring nightmare that began when his mother became ill - an ancient, wild creature that wants him to face truth and loss
