The townspeople of Witchaven are being harassed to sell their property to an evil billionaire tycoon who is trying to build a golf course. As things escalate to violence, a strange creature appears on the beach one day and Muriel McAuley rescues it.
If you can get past large piles of violence and gore this book has a dark and twisted but sweet monster romance with some poignant commentary thrown in the mix. It was a wild gorey ride.
Graphic: Death, Gore, Violence, Blood, Vomit, and Murder
Moderate: Sexual content and Grief
