A Tale of Beasts, Bloodshed, and Belonging

What Quinn wants most (besides maybe a new microscope or a really shiny beetle) is an understanding home. So when their parents tire of their unique passions and send them away, they hope to find that acceptance at their uncle Jasper’s inn. To their shock and delight, the inn’s enchanting clientele makes plenty of room for misfits. The guests here are the stuff of myths, legends, and zoology textbooks.

They’re also just a little murderous. Quinn hasn’t even unpacked when an influential werewolf is found dead in his room. There is no shortage of suspects; like shed hairs, he left behind enemies whenever he went, doing business which violated ethics and possibly even mortality. Unsure who is more likely to befriend or kill them, Quinn must navigate the tensions of this new world while racing to protect their new friends from unseen danger. As if being the new guy wasn’t hard enough already.
