Beth Montgomery is a theoretician, college professor, and an amateur car thief. After stumbling onto a dangerous theoretical discovery, she flees powerful forces aligning against her. Escaping to her ex-boyfriend's ancestral estate in Central Europe, she shortly disappears entirely. Following her ex-boyfriend on the day of her final disappearance, he searches the castle grounds for clues to Beth's disappearance. Along the way he methodically pieces together the relationship between Beth's secret discovery, the castle's vast history, and his family's mythological and often violent relationship with this forgotten fiefdom. Snapdragon consists of six unique tales illustrated in six different artistic styles that share rudimentary characteristics, and despite their different subjects and time periods, become increasingly interrelated as they progress forming a single overall story.
