SEALED WITH A KISS Death is as common as breath. Amid the bloody turmoil of the American Revolution, young Océane Frankenstein uses her misbegotten knowledge and aching sorrows to usurp the bounds of mortality, crafting life from death. Thus awakens a tragic being who does not assuage his maker, but mirrors the tormented depths of her soul. The story of Océane and her Creature is born of violence and sublime terror.
