Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Dr. Eloise Harrow has spent her career studying things that are already dead.So when the Rainwater Museum of Natural History acquires the private collection of a deceased anthropologist-including the remarkably intact remains of an unknown humanoid species-she knows immediately that something about the specimen is wrong.Its skin is too preserved.Its eyes are too dark.And every night, its position changes.At first, Eloise tells herself there must be a scientific explanation.Then the creature moves while she is watching.His name is Orun.He is intelligent. Ancient. Terrifyingly strong.And he has spent decades allowing humans to believe he was dead.When plans for invasive testing threaten to turn him into another experiment, Orun disappears from his locked glass enclosure without triggering a single alarm.The museum searches for him all night.Eloise finds him standing silently inside her apartment.He doesn't attack her.He followed her home.As Eloise uncovers the disturbing truth behind Professor Kessler's research, she realizes Orun was never a fossil, never a specimen, and perhaps never the last of his kind.But freeing him means risking her career, exposing Rainwater's darkest secret, and trusting a creature humanity was never supposed to find.Especially when fascination becomes desire.And the monster behind the museum glass decides Eloise is the one human he refuses to leave behind.A dark, eerie monster romance featuring museum gothic atmosphere, an intelligent nonhuman hero, forced proximity, scientific mystery, creature stalking, explicit spice, and a heroine who really should know better than to touch the exhibit.
