In all the galaxies, there is only one unforgivable law, worse than murder, that must never be broken. Frankenstein's Law exists to prevent the dead from rising, but many, fueled by grief, ignore the risks. When Rowan's father is arrested for breaking the infamous law, Rowan sets out to clear his father's name, convinced of his innocence. But digging up the past has a way of uncovering skeletons that were better off in their shallow graves. As the evidence against his father mounts, Rowan must decide for himself who the real monsters are and why the law exists in the first place.
