Summary

Wilbur Whateley has lived in the run-down town of Dunwich for his entire miserable life. Born to a deformed outcast mother and an unknown father, Wilbur, along with the rest of his strange and dark family, is shunned by the Dunwich residents. When Wilbur attempts to gain access to the Necronomicon in Miskatonic University's library, Dr. Henry Armitage suspects he desires the powerful book of the dark arts for reasons that are not purely academic. But, Wilbur's fascination with the Necronomicon are only the beginning of the horror that the Whateley family has in store for Dunwich.

    In a dystopian California, a woman searches for her daughter with the help of an enigmatic outlaw in this “evocative, sensual, harrowing” zombie thriller (Publishers Weekly, starred review). 
     
    Awakening in a bleak landscape, Cass Dollar vaguely recalls enduring something terrible. With no idea of how many days or weeks have passed, she slowly realizes the horrifying truth: her daughter, Ruthie, has vanished—along with civilization as we know it. Instead of winding through the once-lush hills, the roads today see only cannibalistic Beaters: people turned hungry for human flesh by a government experiment gone wrong. 
     
    In a broken, barren California, Cass will undergo a dangerous quest to get Ruthie back. Few people trust an outsider—much less one who bears the telltale scars of a Beater attack. But she finds safety with a mysterious stranger, Smoke. And she’ll need him more than ever when his ragged band of survivors learn that she and Ruthie have become the most feared, and desired, weapons in a brave new world . . .

    Far from its popular image, the story of Frankenstein as told by Mary Shelley is not a tale that finds horror in a hideous "monster" or a "crazed" scientist. The darkness in the narrative is found in the profound loneliness of both Creator and Created as they seek one another in a tragic cycle of unfulfilled longing and revenge. 
    This powerful novel, first published in 1818, still surprises and shocks us with the fundamental questions about the moral boundaries of human discovery and helps us to question what it means to be human.
