Her partner Michael Maddison would back her up all the way to hell itself – and that just may be where this case ends up.Deucalion, Frankenstein’s original and flawed attempt at replicating life, has travelled for two centuries with a secret worse than death. When he returns to New Orleans, his path leads him to O’Connor. Together, they must destroy a monstrosity that even Dr Frankenstein could not imagine. And Deucalion’s journey is fated to end in the ultimate confrontation between a damned creature and his mad creator.
