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.
