In 2065, biologists found a strand of genetic material in a pregnant woman's womb called a 'subgene'  that could tell you exactly the day you were going to be born, how tall you were going to be, if you were going to be lean or overweight, your hair color, your eye color, and the day you were going to die. If you went agaist your subgene you were an outcast in society. Frowned upon by everybody and treated like dirt. If your subgene said you were going to have brown eyes and you came out with green, prepare to be hated by the country. People believed that if your life didn't go along with your subgenes, then God didn't think you were a good person and you weren't going to Heaven.  Nobody had a happy life if theyre subgenes were off.

This is my story.

This story will become free again on 3 March 2025. It will be removed from Wattpad at some point in the not too distant future. Jessica "Ike" Wordsworth can dive into books, but she isn't prepared for a monster - and a ruthless murderer killing her tourists. Ike is fighting the aftermath of a nasty divorce that left her husband in custody of her homesitting business - and her beloved cats. With nothing but a turquoise construction trailer to call her home, Ike invests her last quid and becomes partner in a tour company specialising in bespoke trips for book-lovers. When the guide hired to take on the first tour drops out at the last minute, Ike has to take over and steer her guests towards the cradle of Mary Shelley's "Frankenstein". All to soon she realises there truly are monsters on the loose, one of them a ruthless killer who's targetting her tourists. To unearth the truth, Ike will have to cooperate with her moronic partner, Gary Sands, 13th Baron of Nettlehole and founder of LiteraTours. When they don't succeed in stopping the killer, she realises she'll have to take the plunge and draw on some rather unusual skills her family has been hiding from the world . . . "Frankenstein's Guide" is the first instalment in the "LiteraTours Cozy Mystery series". [[word count: 100,000-150,000 words]] Cover designed by Ren T
