    About this ebook

    From bestselling author Kim Harrison comes this original short story (to be featured in her anthology Into the Woods, October 2012) where things are most definitely not as they seem. A pet shop employee’s innocent date with a customer quickly turns disturbing rather than delightful. She and her family hold a centuries-old secret, and they want him to stay with them forever . . .

    Kim Harrison

    Kim Harrison is best known as the author of the #1 New York Times bestselling Hollows series, but she has written more than urban fantasy and has published more than two dozen books, spanning the gamut from young adult, accelerated-science thriller, and several anthologies and has scripted two original graphic novels set in the Hollows universe. She has also published traditional fantasy under the name Dawn Cook. Kim is currently working on a new Hollows book between other, nonrelated, urban fantasy projects.

      Bah. I was kind of hoping there wouldn't be vampires and there wouldn't be a person trained in supernatural defense.

      In other words, I was hoping it wouldn't be a traditional urban fantasy, and be more of a horror novel. Sigh. I should have known better.

      This short tale was interesting but did not wow me. I know that if Ms. Harrison followed through with the series she would rock it out and thrill us all. I did not read the first chapter of the next book.

      I love this author & her books are always a pleasure to read. I have read all of the Rachel Morgan series & it's my all-time favorite paranormal series ever!
