If you wield a bow, and stand 2 tiles away from a tile that contains 2 monsters, and begin shooting, you become targetted on one monster, which is what the name shows on the top of the screen. All well and good, but next assume that the second monster, the one you are not targetting, steps one tile forward and begins attacking you. You can keep shooting your bow, but you do not automatically acquire the new target of the closer monster, unless you run around for a bit. I am not sure exactly what you need to do to lose the old target -- backing up in a straight line for a short distance does not work, for instance. I will play around and see if I can better qualify 'run around for a bit'.
Possibly related -- you can use your bow to shoot rats that are standing on the other side of the storekeeper, seemingly right through him, and he doesn't feel a thing.
