Description

"Sent away for the summer, Constance and Ivory Ivyweather, two at-odds opposites, were promised a vacation by their indifferent parents, but the sisters aren't sure what to make of the dangerously decayed mountain town of Quixx and its creeping fog that never seems to lift. When Ivory disappears, Constance tracks her to the mountain, where they learn that the town's hushed talk of monsters is more than just a rumour. With the help of one of these monsters, Derrek -- a dapper spider-like creature with a scientific mind and a tragic past -- they must find a way to lift the dangerous fog that has ensnared the town and return Quixx's long-lost stars. Death and discarded memories haunt every corner of Quixx, but kinship, romance, and family -- the one we choose -- are at the heart of this cautiously optimistic, unabashedly queer modern monster story." -- Back cover
