A dark, breathless, beautifully-written gothic thriller of murder, madness and a mysterious island…
London, 1894. Juliet Moreau has generated a lifestyle for herself-working as a maid, attending cathedral on Sundays, and attempting not to think about the scandal that ruined her existence. After all, nobody ever demonstrated the rumours about her father’s gruesome experiments. However when she learns her dad is certainly alive and continuing his focus on a remote tropical island, she is determined to find out if the about The Madman’s Little girl accusations were accurate.
Juliet is accompanied with the doctor’s handsome young associate and an enigmatic castaway, who both attract Juliet for very different factors. They happen to be the island only to discover the depths of her father’s madness: he has generated animals that have been vivisected to resemble, speak, and work as human beings. Worse, among the animals has flipped violent and is eliminating the island’s inhabitants. Juliet knows she must end her father’s harmful experiments and get away the island, even though her horror can be mixed with her own technological curiosity. As the isle falls into chaos, she discovers the level of her father’s genius-and madness-in her own blood.
