Description
Agnes Tulloch feels cheated by her husband's promise of an island paradise. Instead, she struggles to provide for their four young children in a windswept place that is more harsh than beautiful. When a stranger arrives to rent an abandoned cottage, the islanders are abuzz with curiosity about this wealthy foreigner and his reasons for coming to Eynhallow. As Agnes's husband hires her out as cook and washerwoman, she begrudgingly befriends the aristocrat-in-exile who is working on some secret pursuit. Despite herself, she's drawn to his dark, brooding charm. But what brings this Byronic stranger to their remote island? His name is Frankenstein, and he has a monstrous obligation that he must fulfill. In this haunting tale of love, isolation, and the power of human connection, Agnes finds herself swept up in a world of darkness and wonder.
