Carson O’Connor is a New Orleans homicide detective in Dean Koontz’s reworking of the Frankenstein story. She and her partner, Michael Maddison, begin with murders that lead to Victor Helios, the modern identity of Victor Frankenstein, and his manufactured beings.
Carson approaches the situation as a detective, not as a believer in the fantastic. The evidence forces her to work with Deucalion, Frankenstein’s original creature, against Helios’s plan. She appears throughout the five-book sequence. Read Dean Koontz’s Frankenstein in order because its conflict continues from one novel to the next.
