Of Monsters and Madness

(3) YA In 1826, seventeen-year-old Annabel Lee travels from Siam to Philadelphia to live with her estranged scientist father. A series of nearby murders, rumors of her father's gruesome experiments, and his strange lab assistants--charming Allan Poe and his menacing "cousin" Edgar--pose connected mysteries which curious Annabel investigates. Themes and quotes from Poe's work are smoothly integrated into this eerie Jekyll-and-Hyde-type gothic tale.
