An action-packed middle grade fantasy about a family of monsters, perfect for fans of Neil Gaiman, Jonathan Auxier, and V. E. Schwab.Mirabelle is part of a very unusual family. Between Uncle Bertram transforming into a ferocious grizzly bear and Aunt Eliza’s body being made entirely of spiders, it’s safe to say they are an extraordinary lot.To the human residents of Rookhaven Village, the family is a threat. So long ago, a treaty was made―in return for food, the monsters won’t eat the townspeople―and an invisible glamour was set around the Manor to keep strangers out.But the glamour serves another purpose: to keep the family hidden from those who'd do them harm. When two orphans―Jem and Tom―stumble upon a tear in the magic and open a door that was meant to stay locked, Rookhaven manor is put in grave danger.
