If you have either read Mary Shelly's book or seen any of the endless film versions of the story. You will know that the monster ( the doctor)and Adam, were to have died at the north pole. Well here is where it get's exciting. Mr Koontz has brought the idea into the 21st century. They are both alive, and wind up in New Orleans ( Pre-Katrina). Now the doctor is up to no good ( surprise surprise)and Adam is trying to adjust to being a guardian angel to a little boy. What really apealled to me was that Adam was treated like Mrs. Shelly's idea of him. He's smart, intellegent, not the mindless brute.
