This wrenching psychological tale follows sixteen-year-old Win, who believes he's a werewolf. Alternating chapters flash back to Win's childhood as volatile Drew. As the novel progresses, the boundaries between Win's and Drew's personas begin to blur. In tackling brutal issues of abuse head-on, Kuehn affirms that while Andrew might believe he's a werewolf, the real monster in his life is his abuser.
