Mythological creatures live among us in secret-even to each other-fearful of what humans would do to them if discovered.
Beau is a genius Gnome with ambition; his inventions could change the world, if only his common sense could keep up. Meep is a Lynx, with inhuman gymnastics skills and a desire to do something more meaningful with her life than serve coffee.
With the appearance of one bizarre stranger in their mundane little town in the Pacific Northwest, the destinies of Beau and Meep collide in the most unexpected ways. They must question everything they think they know and team up with witches, goblins, and fae-who are also hiding in secret-to save the world as they know it. The problem is, the further they wander into the dangers that lurk in the shadows, the more they realize a startling truth. Is anyone what they seem to be?
