From the rear cover

The sequel to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein with Mary Shelley's unabridged Frankenstein included
Two tales of terror in one!
Hilary Bailey has created a classic horror story in the vein of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein-and a monster even more terrifying than the original.
Years after he inadvertently set in motion the events that caused a series of deranged murders, Dr. Frankenstein, now living a happy and privileged life, is introduced to young, wealthy Jonathan Goodall. Impressed by Frankenstein's brilliance, Goodall becomes the doctor's assistant and confidante. Together they begin to work on restoring the voice of a beautiful young opera singer, little anticipating the strong pull of her feminine charms.
But Goodall slowly realizes that his partnership with Dr. Frankenstein has engulfed him in a dark, ugly history. In Mary Shelley's classic novel, Dr. Frankenstein began to make a woman-a bride for his creation-but then destroyed her. Bailey's gripping sequel imagines that he actually pursued the plan.
?In this chilling and intelligent sequel to the never-forgotten story, Hilary Bailey imagines what might have happened if Frankenstein had made a woman, a bride, for his male creature?icy, atmospheric and riveting.?
