A cryptid is a creature that science has not yet confirmed to exist. It is often linked to the term "monster." Additionally, cryptids are thought to be mysterious beings that are not entirely understood.

A cryptozoologist is someone who believes in the idea of searching for cryptids, creatures that are not yet proven to exist. Some may view this pursuit as foolish, but for those who are intrigued by the mystery of these elusive beings, it is a fascinating job. Additionally, this field is not just for men; there are also many women who have taken on this challenging and exciting role.

Did you know that gorgons, basilisks, and feathered frogs are all considered mythical creatures by modern science? Some individuals are actively working to ensure these creatures remain that way.

Alexander Value is a member of a cryptozoological lineage that spans generations, and it is his job to behave as a buffer between the human and cryptid worlds—not a simple job while you’re coping with ladies who has snakes rather than hair, little ladies who may very well be cobras, and sensible, lovely Australian zookeepers. After which there’s the matter of the murders…

Alex thought he was selecting the better profession when he determined to focus on non-urban cryptids, leaving the cities to his little sister, Verity. He had no thought what he was letting himself in for. It is a household affair, and everybody—from his reanimated grandfather to his barely damaged telepathic cousin—goes to search out themselves drawn in earlier than issues get any higher.
