Now humans live like rats, desperate for food and safety, the wall towering before us as a mocking reminder of what happened. Some are born into privilege and wealth, and I am one of those. I spend my days trying to change the world we live in and fighting for the truth as any good scientist does. However, when I am thrust through the wall, I have to fight just to survive. Hurt, alone, and scared, I run smack into one of the very creatures we are taught to fear—a_ _monster. But this monster is intent on protecting me, even as I fear him. Together, we must delve into the past to find the truth behind the monster's creation, the truth behind what happened all those years ago. When we do, it changes my entire future. The world crumbling around me, I cling to the only honest thing I find—him. When the humans decide they want their research and their scientist back, I am ripped from the safety of his arms. Once more fighting to survive, I promise to find the truth, even if it costs me my life. With my monster at my side, I will untangle the lies to find the truth, and when I do, this whole monstrous plan will come unraveled. Monstrous Truths is the second book in the Forgotten City series. Each book can be read as a standalone, but the series is best enjoyed in order.
