Timed with the 200th anniversary of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley, THE Dark Descent OF Elizabeth Frankenstein is a stunning reimagination of the classic, speaking to the fears we all bury deep inside.. as the world she knows is consumed by darkness. . .
Behind her blue eyes and sweet smile lies the calculating heart of a girl determined to stay alive no matter the cost .
As the years pass, Elizabeth\'s survival depends on managing Victor\'s dangerous temper and entertaining his every whim, no matter how depraved.
But her new life comes at a price.
Soon she and Victor are inseparable.
She is taken in by the Frankenstein family and rewarded with a warm bed, delicious food, and dresses of the finest silk.
Elizabeth does everything she can to make herself indispensable--and it works.
Victor is her escape from misery. until she is brought to the home of Victor Frankenstein, an unsmiling, solitary boy who has everything--except a friend. . .
Her thin arms are covered with bruises from her "caregiver," and she is on the verge of being thrown into the streets .
