Frankenstein by Dean Koontz.
Synopsis
Victor Levin, formerly Victor Frankenstein, has updated his technology and expanded the scope of his experiments, and now he poses an even greater threat to the human race: eradication through ingenious scientific genetic manipulation and the creation of a replicant race. It will be up to Frankenstein's fifth "wife," Erika Five, who had recently retired to a small quiet town, Detectives Carson O'Connor and Michael Maddison, and Victor's original creation, Deucalion, to stop his sinister plan. This suspenseful, quirky, and at times funny expansion and reimagining of the Frankenstein story follows the events in bestselling author Dean Koontz's FRANKENSTEIN trilogy.

Publisher's Note
#1 New York Times bestselling author Dean Koontz brings his fertile imagination and unparalleled storytelling abilities to one of the most timeless—and terrifying—creations in all of fiction: the legend of Frankenstein. In Lost Souls, Koontz puts a singular twist on this classic tale of ambition and science gone wrong and forges a new legend uniquely suited to our times—a story of revenge, redemption, and the razor-thin line that separates humanity from inhumanity as we consider a new invitation to apocalypse.
The work of creation has begun again. Only now things will be different. Victor Leben, once Frankenstein, has not only seen the future—he’s ready to populate it. Using stem cells, “organic” silicon circuitry, and nanotechnology, he will engender a race of superhumans—the perfect melding of flesh and machine. With a powerful, enigmatic backer eager to see his dream come to fruition and a secret location where the enemies of progress can’t find him, Victor is certain that this time, nothing and no one can stop him.
It is up to five people to prove him wrong. In their hands rests nothing less than the survival of humanity itself.
They are drawn together in different ways, by omens sinister and wondrous, to the same shattering conclusion: Two years after they saw him die, the man they knew as Victor Helios lives on. Detectives Carson O’Connor and Michael Maddison; Victor’s engineered wife, Erika 5, and her companion Jocko; and the original Victor’s first creation, the tormented Deucalion, have all arrived at a small Montana town where their old alliance will be renewed—and tested—by forces from within and without, and where the dangers they face will eclipse any they have yet encountered. Yet in the midst of their peril, love will blossom, and joy, and they will discover sources of strength and perseverance they could not have imagined.
They will need all these resources, and more. For a monumental battle is about to commence that will require all their ingenuity and courage, as it defines what we are to be . . . and if we are to be at all.
From the Hardcover edition.
A audio release of a latest entry in the best-selling series featuring a retelling of the Frankenstein legend begins a new story cycle pitting its characters against supernatural forces that pose apocalyptic threats. By the author of Dead and Alive. Simultaneous.
John Saul is at his terrifying best as he takes readers into the vast, dark labyrinth of tunnels beneath Manhattan, home to a bizarre collection of outcasts, and introduces a secret society that uses (and stocks) this underworld as a private hunting ground, with its residents as their prey.
Industry Reviews
"Obviously enjoying himself, Koontz does his dance of grisly suspense, wry dialogue, sharp characterization, outlandish but charming (and well-integrated) comic relief, and cultural criticism more adroitly than almost ever before."
