A twelve-year-old cemetery boy and monster hunter-along with his
flesh-eating mermaid friend-has to race against the clock to save
the ghost of his dead mother in Brick Dust and Bones, M.R.
Fournet's magical middle grade debut. Marius Grey hunts Monsters.
He's not supposed to. He's only twelve and his job as a Cemetery
Boy is to look after the ghosts in his family's graveyard. He
should be tending these ghosts and-of course-going to school to
learn how to live between worlds without getting into trouble. But,
Marius has an expensive goal. He wants to bring his mother back
from the dead, and that takes a LOT of mystic coins, which means a
LOT of Monster Hunting, and his mother's window to return is
closing. If he wants her back, Marius is going to have to go after
bigger and meaner monsters, decide if a certain flesh-eating
mermaid is a friend or foe, and avoid meddling Demons and teachers
along the way. Can Marius navigate New Orleans's gritty monster
bounty-hunting market, or will he have to say goodbye to his mother
forever?
