Frankenstein's Daemon

By Michael Meeske

New York Times best-selling author Heather Graham has called Frankenstein's Daemon, "a classic tale, written with emotion, that truly seduces us into the humanity of a 'monster.'" Written as a sequel to Mary Shelley's masterpiece of 200 years ago, Frankenstein's Daemon captures the spirit of the original in this page-turning tale.
The chase is on! Capt. Robert Walton pursues the monster, vowing to carry out the revenge ordered by Victor Frankenstein. Walton's quest takes him to Ernest Frankenstein, Victor's brother, and his beautiful wife, Olivia. Mad ambition, unfettered science and love betrayed lead to a shattering climax on the streets of London.
