Beschreibung

A sinister plan ignites not-so-spontaneous combustions in an explosive thriller from the New York Times–bestselling author of the Stillhouse Lake novels.   A prostitute’s client in Dallas. A jogger in El Paso. A pastor in Louisiana. Across the South and Southwest, middle-aged men are bursting into flames.    In the Office of Environmental Hazards, one man is on the case. His initial observations point to something in the drinking water. But intelligence agents suspect something much more ominous: terrorism.    Someone somewhere has come up with a diabolic weapon that could attract millions of dollars from the most dangerous people in the world, those with no conscience, no loyalty, no morality. And two women in Dallas—a sex worker and a thief—find themselves thrust into the middle of a conflagration that could raze everything in its path . . .   Praise for Rachel Caine   “A first-class storyteller who can deal out amazing plot twists as though she was dealing cards.” —Charlaine Harris, New York Times–bestselling author of True Blood

    In the icy desolation of the Arctic, an ambitious explorer encounters Victor Frankenstein—a man haunted by his own creation and the devastating consequences of unbridled ambition. 
    Victor’s tale unfolds: a brilliant scientist driven by a thirst for knowledge, he defies the natural order and succeeds in animating lifeless matter. Yet, his triumph turns to terror as he confronts the grotesque and tragic being he has brought to life. Cast out and abandoned, the creature embarks on a harrowing quest for understanding, vengeance, and acceptance in a world that shuns him. 
    Frankenstein is a masterful exploration of ambition, responsibility, and the ethical boundaries of scientific discovery. Mary Shelley's groundbreaking novel weaves gothic horror with profound philosophical questions, creating a timeless story that still resonates today. 
    A gripping tale of creation and destruction, Frankenstein challenges readers to confront the very essence of humanity and the consequences of playing God.

    A disturbing and ghoulish tale and acknowledged as one of Lovecraft's best. For many years, the narrator and his uncle, Dr. Elihu Whipple, have nurtured a fascination with an old abandoned house on Benefit Street. Dr. Whipple has made extensive use of records tracking the mysterious, yet apparently coincidental, sickness and death of many who have lived in the house for over one hundred years. They are also puzzled by the strange weeds growing in the yard, as well as an unexplained foul smell and whitish phosphorescent fungi growing in the cellar. There, the narrator discovers a strange, yellowish vapour in the basement, which seems to be coupled with a moldy outline of a huddled human form on the floor. The narrator and his uncle decide to spend the night in the house, investigating the possibility of some supernatural force. They set up both cots and chairs in the cellar, arm themselves with military flamethrowers, and outfit a modified Crookes tube in the hopes of destroying any supernatural presence they might find. What they find is horrible indeed.
