In "The Madman's Daughter" by Megan Shepherd, sixteen-year-old Juliet Moreau struggles with her father's legacy—a notorious scientist who conducted gruesome experiments on humans and animals alike. Resenting the darkness of his work, she seeks a fresh start in London but instead discovers her father's hidden island laboratory. When she arrives, she encounters a series of unsettling experiments and meets Montgomery, her father's assistant, and a mysterious beast who may hold the key to her own heart. As she grapples with her father's moral failings and her own identity, Juliet must decide what lines she is willing to cross for love and survival.
