   Summary

   Amara Brown is no stranger to monsters. She's seen firsthand what they are capable of, which is why she has to save Carol and protect M.C. Unfortunately for Amara, things are not all what they seem at the Circus. Between a strangely powerful connection and a few questionable decisions, it doesn't take long to end up more deeply ensnared with the Circus and a certain purple monster than she could ever have imagined.
