A compelling atmospheric and gothic Frankenstein-inspired adventure by an award-winning Irish
author. A thrilling gothic adventure brimming with heart and bursting with big questions. I
loved it. Lucy Strange Stitch is not a monster - he's a creation. He and his friend Henry Oaf
were brought to life by the genius Professor Hardacre and have spent all their days in a
castle deep in the woods far from humankind. But when the Professor dies and his pompous
nephew comes to take over the laboratory they soon find out that his sights are set not on
scientific discovery but personal glory. And Henry is his next experiment. Can Stitch and
Henry escape his clutches and make their way in a world they were never built for - and may
never be ready for them? A magnificent gothic adventure full of heart for age 8+
