Deep in the lush jungles of 19th-century Yucatán, Carlota Moreau lives on a secluded estate where her father creates human-animal hybrid creatures.

Carlota Moreau grows up in 1870s Mexico on a remote estate where her father, Dr. Moreau, conducts secret bio-engineering experiments funded by wealthy estate owners. Raised alongside her father's human-animal hybrid creations and overseer Montgomery Laughton, Carlota's quiet life is disrupted by the arrival of Eduardo Lizalde, the son of Moreau's patron.

As romantic tensions rise and the hybrids' delicate health declines, Carlota uncovers dangerous truths regarding her father's scientific ambitions and her own lineage.

Why You’ll Love This Book

Bestselling author Silvia Moreno-Garcia reimagines H.G. Wells's classic sci-fi tale with Mexican historical gothic atmosphere, bio-punk horror, and lush prose. An essential hardcover for fans of Mexican Gothic and historical fantasy.
