Are you into horror?
Megan Shepard’s new book, The Madman’s Daughter, takes a new spin on an old classic.
Using the main plot from H. G. Wells’s The Island of Dr. Moreau, Shepard brings her own unique flair and inserts enough plot twists to give a new flavor to this haunting tale.
Traveling to a remote tropical island with her father’s young assistant, Montgomery and a castaway they happen to pick up along the way, Juliet Moreau is determined to uncover just how far her father’s insanity has gone. The accusations surrounding him seem too sinister to be true, but is it possible they are? Along the way, she also stumbles upon a horrifying truth that might be more than she can bare; a secret that resides in her own blood.
“The Madman’s Daughter is an incredibly atmospheric, dark, and often disturbing book that captured my attention from the very beginning,” writes one review posted on the blog therewerebooksinvolved.
A dark and mysterious read with a love triangle to soften the oftentimes chilling plot points, The Madman’s Daughter is one book you won’t want to put down.
