They travel in close knit armies, are extremely talkative and are inexplicably attracted to Zachary Takk, especially one small female I have named Bridjit. Zack’s yellow and red jacket may or may not have something to do with that. They live both in the trees and on the ground, usually near water. They are mildly poisonous to the touch (may cause irritation of the skin or blistering), cause temporary paralysis if their skin secretions enter the bloodstream, and death if ingested. They have very few predators, and make up about 90% of Marsh Hallows’ population. None have been found outside of Marsh Hallows.
Three page update--hope you like it! Welcome to those who have recently subscribed (I am determined to thank you all personally, no matter how long it takes) and those who have patiently stuck with me till this point. Please feel free to comment as usual--what do you like so far? Dislike? Does anyone have a pet poisonous frog?
Zachary Takk is a magnet for danger, and is convinced that Death himself has been hunting him. He’s escaped by the skin of his teeth from the day he was born and the day he rides his new motorcycle for the first time is no different– except that it changes everything. For him, and for the small, hidden town of Marsh Hallows... *Mild content warning: teenager with gun, minor amounts of blood, non-gory death, some heavy themes
