Ours is an age of seemingly endless conflict and environmental destruction, when humanity is increasingly confronted with the dire consequences of its actions. With this in mind, Mary Shelley’s 'Frankenstein' has gone from cautionary tale to the defining story of our civilization. There is no better time to revisit this story, and Kathlyn Bradshaw has channeled Mary Shelly in her debut novel, 'The Frankenstein Murders'. A young English detective named Edward Freame is assigned a case that could make or break his career. He is to track down a serial strangler, a task made daunting by the fact that the murders are three years old, and the one person connected to the victims is dead, leaving only his writings behind. It is in these writings, the journal of a young scientist named Victor Frankenstein, that the search for answers begins. Freame sets out on a journey to retrace Frankenstein’s last flight across Europe, and follow his descent into the human abyss. 'The Frankenstein Murders' is a shock to the system, working elements from Mary Shelley’s original masterpiece into a story that is equal parts Victorian gaslight detective mystery and modern psychological thriller. Its period-perfect prose, vivid characterization, and gripping narrative is guaranteed to take the reader on a stunning intellectual journey to a place where men and monsters are one and the same.
The Frankenstein Murders edition by Kathlyn Bradshaw Literature Fiction eBooks
Finely crafted, beautifully paced and written this unusual book tells its story from a unique perspective building in a mannered style from the correspondence of its principals.If this "reported" style sounds dull, it isn't for the suspense is sustained throughout and the characterisation developed through the characters own insights into and reactions to unfolding events and to the other characters' reactions to same.
As the book's main character attempts to rebuild a chain of events from a trail where scents are long cold, and where information is both sparse and often contradictory, the author allows us to make our own judgements about the nature of the tapestry being woven and I was often surprised when further information unearthed en route forced me again and again to reconsider my version of how events most likely unfolded.
This is an intelligent author deeply steeped in the Gothic tradition who has produced a wonderful first novel that is a pleasure to read.
