Blood. Family. Secrets. In the quiet suburbs, a mother's darkest instincts threaten to destroy everything she's built.
Trish has spent centuries perfecting her disguise—the devoted wife, the caring mother, the ideal neighbor. But beneath her suburban facade lurks a bloodthirsty vampire struggling to contain her true nature. When a horrifying accident exposes her secret to Victoria, a college student who becomes an unwilling witness, Trish's carefully constructed world begins to collapse.
Now, suspicious neighbors circle closer, her husband Randel's trust wavers, and Victoria's desperate search for answers threatens everything Trish has worked to hide. As human and supernatural threats converge from unexpected directions, Trish faces an impossible reveal the monster within or watch her family burn.
Some secrets run deeper than blood. Some monsters are closer to home than she ever imagined.
Monster is the second installment in K.T. Rose's supernatural thriller series that explores the razor's edge between love and hunger, family and survival. In a world where the greatest threats often come from those closest to home, how far would you go to protect the life you've built on lies?
