Then the day arrived, when the woman who had been his "mother" is struck down by something that could only have come from his worst nightmares. Now Peter's once ordered world crashes into stark reality. Grace Silk Cotton, the legendary Supernatural Churlie Queen and enforcer between the worlds, is his real mother. The Monsters are real, Peter is one himself, and the prophetic fight for supremacy, survival, the stories, and SILK COTTON has begun.
