‘A fantastic, immersive read’ NAOMI NOVIK
‘Phenomenal’ ADALYN GRACE

The sequel to the unmissable and hugely romantic young adult fantasy Only a Monster, set in London, will take Joan deeper into the monster world, where treacherous secrets and danger await.

Not every fight is won by heroes. Sometimes, you need a monster.

Joan has achieved the impossible. She reset the timeline, saved her family – and destroyed the hero.

But success has come at a terrible cost. She alone remembers what happened. Aaron, her hard-won friend – and maybe more– is now her enemy. And Nick, the boy she loved, doesn’t even know her name.

Then an attack forces Joan back into the monster world as a fugitive, where she discovers a secret that threatens everyone she loves. Now Joan must re-gather her allies to face down a deadly enemy, and save the timeline itself . . .
