Their father, Adam, a brilliant oceanographer, raised them mostly on his own in his remote home on Cape Cod, where the attachment between Ken and Abby deepened into something complicated-and as adults their relationship is strained. Now, years later, the siblings' lives are still deeply entwined. Set in the fraught summer of 2016, and drawing on the biblical tale of Cain and Abel, Little Monsters is an absorbing, sharply observed family story by a writer who knows Cape Cod inside and out-its Edenic lushness and its snakes. --cProvided by publisher. 0aSiblingsvFiction. 0aSibling rivalryvFiction. 0aFathersvFiction. 0aFamiliesvFiction. 0aPeople with bipolar disorder vFiction. 0aPsychic traumavFiction. 0aCape Cod Bay (Mass.)vFiction. 7aDomestic fiction.2lcgft
