Ellie Adair isnāt surprised when a vampire appears in the takeout window of her part-time job, and while sheās afraid of the flame salamander attacking her employerās ice cream store, sheās come to expect these sudden monster attacks. Theyāve been happening across the globe for nearly a year, to the point that local governments are beginning to fund towns that organize their own āmonster-huntingā militias.Ā
But Ellieās not concerned with the Beowulf Brigadeās newsletter or the push for vampires to integrate into society. Sheās too busy searching for answers about her father's disappearance, her mother's battle with mental illness, her grandfatherās suddenly failing health, and the fact thatājust weeks after turning sixteenāEllie starts transforming into a lumbering, bloodthirsty beast.Ā
In a world where insurance companies offer supernatural creature coverage for monster attacks and restaurants offer hema, a blood substitute for vampires wanting to follow more sustainable diets, Ellie isn't sure which side she's on, but she knows that whatever is kidnapping teens from Errolton High School needs to be stopped. And maybe, with the help of her friends, her monstrous persona can make a difference.
The Salamander Stone is a tale of monsters, teen angst, and one girl's journey to heal her estranged relationship with her familyāand herself.Ā
