书籍简介

这部大胆而令人毛骨悚然的续集是《弗兰肯斯坦》的续集，以玛丽·雪莱的经典风格创作。这部续集出自《德古拉的孩子》的作者之手，是金·纽曼和西尔维娅·莫雷诺-加西亚粉丝的完美之选。

“他很快就被海浪卷走，消失在黑暗和远方。”有人会发誓维克多·弗兰肯斯坦已经死了。也有人会发誓说他的怪物也死了。但他们错了。

1842年，民俗学家纳撒尼尔·格林和妻子爱丽丝逃到乡下，完成他的最新著作。爱丽丝渴望拥有一个家庭，却发现自己没有家庭，她眼睁睁地看着格林与她渐行渐远，加剧了他们之间本已紧张的关系。

当一个衣衫褴褛、神志恍惚的神秘陌生人来到家门口时，爱丽丝热情地迎接了他，却发现自己被他许下的承诺所诱惑。 1850年，纳撒尼尔·格林在纽盖特监狱被控谋杀。

慈善家杰西·马龙和通灵师休伯特·克罗决心查明真相，但格林讲述的故事却令人难以置信：在一个户外实验室里，竟然出现了怪诞、不可思议的创造物。为了揭开格林怪诞说法背后的真相，两位调查员必须深入一个令人恐惧的世界。在那里，他们再次扮演上帝，而过去的幽灵似乎依然活着，并且充满复仇的念头。在这部玛丽·雪莱这部无与伦比的经典之作的续集中，古老的实验再次上演，新的谜团浮现，人类道德的真正问题再次受到考验。

A writer finds his rural English life disrupted by the arrival of mysterious doctor with a legendary past in this bold and chilling sequel to Frankenstein, written in the style of Mary Shelley's classic. From the author of Dracula’s Child. Perfect for fans of Kim Newman and Silvia Moreno-Garcia.

"He was soon borne away by the waves, and lost in darkness and distance."There are those who would swear that Victor Frankenstein is dead. Those who would swear that his Creature died also. They are wrong.

1842. Folklorist Nathaniel Greene escapes to the country to finish his latest book, along with his wife, Alice. Yearning for a family, and yet finding herself without, Alice watches as Greene grows ever more distant with her, fraying their already tense bonds.

When a mysterious stranger arrives on their doorstep, bedraggled and delirious, Alice welcomes him in, finding herself seduced by the promises he makes. 1850. In Newgate prison, Nathaniel Greene stands accused of murder.

Philanthropist Jesse Malone and psychic Hubert Crowe are determined to understand what happened, but the story Greene has to tell is almost unbelievable: one of monstrous, impossible creations made in an outhouse laboratory. To uncover the truth behind Greene’s bizarre claims, the two investigators must delve into a terrifying world where the men play God once more, and the ghosts of the past appear to be alive and vengeful. In this visionary sequel to Mary Shelley’s peerless classic, old experiments resume, new mysteries arise, and the true question of mankind’s morality is tested once more.
