For fans of Libba Bray, this first book in a gothic suspense
trilogy is inspired by H. G. Wells's The Island of Dr. Moreau and
has been hailed by New York Times bestseller Carrie Ryan as having
"beautiful writing, breakneck pacing, a pulse-pounding mystery, and
an irresistible romance."
Following accusations that her scientist father gruesomely
experimented on animals, sixteen-year-old Juliet watched as her
family and her genteel life in London crumbled around her--and only
recently has she managed to piece her world back together. But when
Juliet learns her father is still alive and working on a remote
tropical island, she is determined to find out if the old
accusations are true. Accompanied by her father's handsome young
assistant, Montgomery, and an enigmatic castaway, Edward, Juliet
travels to the island, only to discover the depths of her father's
insanity. Torn between horror and scientific curiosity, Juliet
knows she must end her father's dangerous experiments and escape
her jungle prison before it's too late. Yet as the island falls
into chaos, she discovers the extent of her father's genius--and
madness--in her own blood.
