People are disappearing in the small community of Picton.
It's not big news in the city where Freya lives, but when she stumbles across the story in her local newspaper, whispers from her guilt-ridden childhood call her back to the life she thought she'd escaped decades ago. Answering the summons of her own murky history, Freya journeys home to reunite with her long-lost best friend and her one remaining family member at the farm she once ran away from in the middle of the night. As soon as she arrives, she finds both twisted memories and fresh horrors waiting for her: killers, ghosts, and something dark that waits at the edge of the woods, hungry for blood and suffering. Freya must decide if she's willing to face the demons of her past and her present-and if she's prepared for the cost of fighting.
"By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes." -- William Shakespeare

It is a tumultuous journey filled with pain and joy, blood and smiles, suffering and relief, monsters and magic.

Come peruse the beasts within. This collection is filled with short stories and flash fiction that is gouged by talons, covered in feathers, slick with scales, coiled in tentacles, stripped of flesh, and even tainted by the beasts we call human. You’ll find cancer treatments gone horribly awry, a homeless child who hides more than her face behind her scraggly hair, an old western villain who isn’t quite what she seems, and a pair of women who learn to spread their wings and fly. You’ll find beasts you couldn’t conjure in your worst nightmares in places you never would have imagined they’d hide. So peek inside that dark room, take that walk through the woods, creep down that alley, stroll on that dark beach, and come face-to-face with beasts as beautiful as they are horrible.
