Death is just the beginning.When seventeen-year-old Dilly Rothbart finds her recently deceased father’s hidden journal, her entire world is upended–for what she finds within are the steps to bring a dead soul back to life. Intent on finishing her father’s work and establishing herself as the greatest scientist in history, Dilly plunges into a medical underworld of corpse-stealing, grave-robbing, and even murder. And when her twin sister steps in the way of her studies, she’ll do whatever is necessary to secure the recognition she deserves. This twisty, atmospheric, Frankensteinian tale is about a group of ambitious young scientists who descend into corruption when a breakthrough discovery grants them the power of gods.
