Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

When Willow and her mother relocate from the arid landscapes of New Mexico to the dense forests of Conry, New York, they leave behind more than just their home-they step into a world teeming with secrets and supernatural beings. Conry isn't your typical small town; its population is dominated by werewolves, each with their own hidden stories and complex lives.Willow's mother is an ordinary human, but her late father carried the werewolf gene, a legacy he passed down to her. Now, living under the same roof as her werewolf uncle, Willow grapples with the fear and uncertainty of her own dormant wolf gene while doing her best to ward off those who wish to activate it for her. As she navigates her new life, she forms a close bond with a local boy who is destined to embrace his own werewolf transformation.Just when Willow begins to adapt to the extraordinary challenges of living among werewolves and resisting her own inner beast, a new terror descends upon Conry-a wendigo, an ancient and malevolent creature with a hunger for human flesh.Willow's journey is one of self-discovery, friendship, and survival in a world where the line between humanity and monstrosity is dangerously thin. Can she keep her inner wolf at bay, or will she have to embrace her true nature to protect those she loves?From Reader's Favorite 5-star review: ...Conry is packed with chills, thrills, and mystery.

Recommended to fans of YA supernatural fiction!***From Reader's Favorite 5-star review...The storyline in Conry by Eileen Sheehan was captivating and intricate. It was an exhilarating journey filled with creatures, danger, and mystery. The story was fast-paced and was packed full of action. From the very beginning, I was engrossed and could not stop turning the pages. With all the unexpected twists and turns, I was always uncertain about what would happen next. The events were vividly described, making it easy to imagine what was unfolding. The characters felt authentic and relatable, even the creatures. The personalities of the creatures were akin to humans, and, for some, causing harm to others was of little concern. The writing was masterfully done and kept my interest the entire time. I thoroughly enjoyed the read, and it surpassed all my expectations.
