Eynhallow by Tim McGregor
A Ghost Story
In 1797, Agnes Tulloch finds herself on the remote Orkney Islands, far from the idyllic life her husband had promised. With four children to care for and a husband who is increasingly absent, Agnes struggles to keep her family afloat. The arrival of a mysterious stranger renting a nearby cottage stirs the curiosity of the islanders. This enigmatic foreigner, a wealthy scientist with a secretive agenda, soon becomes a part of Agnes's life when her husband insists she work for him as a cook and washerwoman. Despite her initial reluctance, Agnes finds herself drawn to the stranger's dark allure. As she navigates her complex feelings, she discovers that this brooding figure is none other than Frankenstein, who has come to the island with a daunting mission.
