Synopsis

In a world where reanimated corpses provide labor, medical student John Watson wants more than a body that moves. He secretly revives a dead friend, names him Friday, and becomes determined to recover the mind that ordinary corpse technology cannot restore.

British intelligence recruits him to search for Victor Frankenstein's lost research, sending Watson and Friday far from London. Others covet the same knowledge for very different reasons. His personal hope becomes entangled with imperial ambitions and a question no experiment has yet answered: what makes a person more than an obedient body?
