Sixteen-year-old Juliet Moreau has built a life for herself in Londonamp;#8212;working as a maid, attending church on Sundays, and trying not to think about the scandal that ruined her life. After all, no one ever proved the rumors about her fatheramp;#39;s gruesome experiments. But when she learns he is alive and continuing his work on a remote tropical island, she is determined to find out if the accusations are true.

Accompanied by her fatheramp;#39;s handsome young assistant, Montgomery, and an enigmatic castaway, Edwardamp;#8212;both of whom she is deeply drawn toamp;#8212;Juliet travels to the island, only to discover the depths of her fatheramp;#39;s madness: He has experimented on animals so that they resemble, speak, and behave as humans. And worse, one of the creatures has turned violent and is killing the islandamp;#39;s inhabitants. Torn between horror and scientific curiosity, Juliet knows she must end her fatheramp;#39;s dangerous experiments and escape her jungle prison before itamp;#39;s too late. Yet as the island falls into chaos, she discovers the extent of her fatheramp;#39;s geniusamp;#8212;and madnessamp;#8212;in her own blood.
