Eli wants more than anything to be a research scientist, and so he volunteers to help friends survey wild horses in Hole-in-the-Wall country. Their helicopter crashes, and Eli is the only survivor. He almost freezes to death before being picked up by a strange supertall girl named Sam and taken to a weird underground medical facility. He knows things aren’t all what they seem when he discovers a woman with huge glossy wings in a closed lab. Does the director, Dr. Moreau, really want Eli to help him with research? Or does the doctor have other plans? Readers of Scott Westerfield and Danielle Paige will love this mashup of H.G. Wells’s classic The Island of Dr. Moreau.
