It won't be easy; everyone has secrets to hide, especially the bride and groom themselves...

A collection of tales featuring monsters and angels, though not all appear as they truly are. Includes the story Strawberry Pickers ... There were monsters in cages on the lowest floor of the Genieworks building. Other monsters held the keys.
