Book about grief. Good storyline. My first dark, gothic horror book. Sad. Ending was great. They let him go- him being Montrilio which in literary sense it was the grief of losing their son. They accepted his death/they accepted that Monstrilio was an animal and could not keep him and that it will only hurt him and themselves, so they let him go.
