In a world stitched together with shadows and secrets, orphaned Sybella is taken in by none other than Dr. Victor Frankenstein after her mother dies of consumption. Rescued from the horrors of the workhouse, she becomes the Doctor’s second chance—his opportunity to fill the void left by the tragic loss of his wife and daughter.
But as the years pass, and Sybella begins to mature, she’s shaped by the Doctor’s unstable mind, his emotional storms, and his relentless teachings. Molded into a different kind of mad scientist, Sybella carries a secret of her own: her heart is failing. And Frankenstein has no idea.
As the darkness in their home deepens, Sybella begins to uncover a labyrinth of dangerous mysteries and forbidden experiments. Her quiet world spirals into peril, colliding with legends like Sherlock Holmes, Jekyll and Hyde, and others who bring more questions than answers.
This is not a fairy tale of monsters and men. It’s a tale of survival, transformation, and the haunting truth that sometimes the greatest experiments are the ones we keep hidden within ourselves.
For readers aged 13-18 who love gothic horror, twisted classics, and heroines with sharp minds.
