Alexander Price is a member of a cryptozoological lineage that spans generations and it's his job to act as a buffer between the human and cryptid worlds -- not an easy task when you're dealing with women who has snakes in place of hair, little girls who may actually be cobras, and brilliant, beautiful Australian zookeepers. And then there's the matter of the murders. Alex thought he was choosing the easier career when he decided to specialize in non-urban cryptids, leaving the cities to his little sister, Verity. He had no idea what he was letting himself in for. It's a family affair, and everyone, from his reanimated grandfather to his slightly broken telepathic cousin, is going to find themselves drawn in before things get any better
