In the sequel to the Nebula finalist The Strange Case of the
Alchemist's Daughter, Mary Jekyll and the rest of the daughters of
mad scientists from literature embark on a madcap adventure across
Europe to rescue another monstrous girl and stop the Alchemical
Society's nefarious plans once and for all. Mary Jekyll's life has
been peaceful since she helped Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson solve
the Whitechapel Murders. Beatrice Rappaccini, Catherine Moreau,
Justine Frankenstein, and Mary's sister Diana Hyde have settled
into the Jekyll household in London, and although they sometimes
quarrel, the members of the Athena Club get along as well as any
five young women with very different personalities. At least they
can always rely on Mrs. Poole. But when Mary receives a telegram
that Lucinda Van Helsing has been kidnapped, the Athena Club must
travel to the Austro-Hungarian Empire to rescue yet another young
woman who has been subjected to horrific experimentation. Where is
Lucinda, and what has Professor Van Helsing been doing to his
daughter? Can Mary, Diana, Beatrice, and Justine reach her in time?
Racing against the clock to save Lucinda from certain doom, the
Athena Club embarks on a madcap journey across Europe. From Paris
to Vienna to Budapest, Mary and her friends must make new allies,
face old enemies, and finally confront the fearsome, secretive
Alchemical Society. It's time for these monstrous gentlewomen to
overcome the past and create their own destinies.
