Finnigan lives with his parents and brother at Hillcrest House, a creepy mansion deep in the woods that he has never left, not even once.
The world beyond its gates has become unlivable since "the Happenings", when atomic warfare resulted in mass destruction and transformed humans into blood-drinking creatures. That's why Finnigan and his family must stay inside. Still, Finnigan's life at Hillcrest House is busy with chores, tutoring and the strange memory exercises that his strict parents insist on. Then one day he stumbles upon a secret room in the basement filled with evidence that his life is built on a bed of lies. Shocked by what he finds, Finnigan realizes that if he ever wants to find out the truth, he will have to brave the outside world--before it's too late.

Illustrator Martin Côté started his career in the 1980s as an advertising illustrator. In the early 1990s, he tried his hand at scratchboard, a technique similar to etching. His signature style has remained very similar to etching, even as he's moved into the digital age. His illustrations have been used in corporate branding, on promotional documents, book covers and beverage labels--and even in movies.
