As tensions heighten between Victor and the islanders, Oona becomes the doctor's trusted accomplice, aiding in secret experiments and seeing horrors she sometimes wishes to forget. When May disappears, Oona must face up to growing suspicions about the enigmatic employer to whom she has grown close - but the truth is darker than anything she could imagine.A literary gothic, in the tradition of Jean Rhys's Wide Sargasso Sea and Valerie Martin's Mary Reilly.Mad Skills
