But to sixteen-year-old Joséphine and her best friend, Clara, the beast isnt a curse. Its an opportunity. For years, the girls of Mende have been living in a nightmarefathers who drink, brothers who punch, homes that feel like prisonsand this is a chance to get them out.Using the creatures attacks as cover, Joséphine and Clara set out to fake their friends deaths and hide them away until its safe to run.
