Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In 1978, Dr. Helen Hildreth, a compassionate psychiatrist at a treatment center in Vermont, balances her professional life with her role as a loving grandmother to Vi and Eric. Their idyllic life takes a turn when she brings home Iris, a troubled girl who is silent and skittish. While Iris struggles to fit in, Violet is excited to have a new friend and invites her to join the Monster Club, where they share their fears and adventures. As the trio bonds over bike rides and secret monster hunts, Iris gradually opens up, revealing the innocence and joy of childhood amidst their imaginative play. Fast forward to 2019, Lizzy Shelley, the host of the podcast Monsters Among Us, heads to Vermont to investigate a recent child abduction and a reported monster sighting. Lizzy is driven by personal stakes, as she knows firsthand that monsters exist—one of them being her own sister. This gripping narrative weaves together themes of childhood innocence, the complexities of mental health, and the haunting nature of familial ties, inviting readers to confront the primal fears that dwell within us all.
