Imagine a modern spin on Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein where a young couple’s undying love and the grief of a father pushed beyond sanity could spell the destruction of them all.
A string of suspicious deaths near a small Michigan town ends with a fall that claims the life of Emma Gentry's boyfriend, Daniel. Emma is broken, a hollow shell mechanically moving through her days. She and Daniel had been made for each other, complete only when they were together. Now she restlessly wanders the town in the late Fall gloom, haunting the cemetery and its white-marbled tombs, feeling Daniel everywhere, his spectre in the moonlight and the fog.
When she encounters newcomer Alex Franks, only son of a renowned widowed surgeon, she's intrigued despite herself. He's an enigma, melting into shadows, preferring to keep to himself. But he is as drawn to her as she is to him. He is strangely... familiar. From the way he knows how to open her locker when it sticks, to the nickname she shared only with Daniel, even his hazel eyes with brown flecks are just like Daniel's.
The closer they become, though, the more something inside her screams there's something very wrong with Alex Franks. And when Emma stumbles across a grotesque and terrifying menagerie of mangled but living animals within the walls of the Franks' estate, creatures she surely knows must have died from their injuries, she knows
MY review:
Emma is a broken girl because she lost her boyfriend Daniel and she miss him.She feel lost and empty without him because she was a perfect boyfriend for her and her best friend.
She meet on Alex ,a new boy in her school and she feel drawn to him because he has Daniel's eyes his habits and he knows her nickname.She feel in love with Alex because he is always around her and he is very sweet with her and protective.I like the relationship between them.
When Emma found out the truth about the death of Daniel and the accident of Alex she felt angry and broken but Alex was there to help on Emma to understand that he loves her and the truth doesn't change anything between them
Emma knows that Alex is her soul mate and she now have a new chance to love again without to feel guilty because she loves another man.
It was a intereting read.
I received this e-ARC through Netgalley.
