A teenage genius. An inherited Austrian castle. A family name that should have stayed buried.
Sixteen-year-old Freddy Frank is used to being misunderstood. Brilliant, awkward, and obsessed with fringe science, he spends more time with experiments than with friends. But after a humiliating science fair disaster, Freddy discovers something impossible: his family may be connected to the legendary Victor Frankenstein.
When Freddy and his mother inherit a crumbling castle in the Austrian Alps, they expect dust, legal paperwork, and a fresh start. Instead, they find a village that fears their name, a locked door that hums with electricity, and a hidden laboratory filled with machines that were never meant to wake again.
Then Freddy does the unthinkable.
He brings Boris back to life.
At first, Boris is Freddy's greatest achievement - proof that the old science was real. But Boris is not a monster. He is confused, frightened, and painfully human. As Freddy begins to understand the consequences of what he has done, the world outside the castle closes in. A suspicious doctor wants the secret for himself. The villagers want the nightmare ended. And Freddy must decide whether genius is worth anything without compassion.
With the help of Anna, a sharp-witted local girl with secrets of her own, Freddy must protect Boris, uncover the truth behind Victor Frankenstein's work, and face the terrifying question at the heart of creation:
Just because you can bring someone back... should you?
Freddy Frankenstein is a thrilling young adult gothic science fiction adventure about friendship, identity, grief, responsibility, and the dangerous line between brilliance and obsession. Perfect for readers who enjoy mysterious castles, dark family secrets, reimagined classics, and stories where the real monster may not be the one everyone fears.
