Description
On a rainy March afternoon in the spring of 2036, retired newspaperman Tom Elliot suffered a massive heart attack and dropped dead in the driveway of his St. Louis home. But this morning, two months later, he suddenly finds himself very much alive -- at least for the next 83 days. In The Frankenstein Man, author Bill Smith takes readers on a journey into one man's second chance, a second chance that forces Elliot to confront the demons of his past even as he wrestles with the inevitability of his own mortality. The Frankenstein Man is a story of love, loss, guilt and a driving need for retribution and justice. It is a story too of mankind's eons-long, universal search for answers to the unanswerable
