Set in the deep South, Mongrels is a deeply moving, sometimes grisly, and surprisingly funny novel that follows an unnamed narrator as he comes of age under the care of his aunt and uncle - who are werewolves.
Poor yet resilient, the boy lives in the shadows with his aunt Libby and uncle Darren, folk who stubbornly make their way in a society that does not understand or want them. Always on the move across the South, living a life of late-night exits and narrow escapes, one step ahead of the law. But everything is about to change. The boy will be turning sixteen, and he will need to understand his family and his place in the world. A world that shuns and fears werewolves.
