He wants her to come live with him. In spite of her mother’s warning, Anika moves to the small town built around her father’s laboratory, but instead of getting to know him, she is ushered off to high school where she starts to notice strange things about the other students.

Anika is dropped into a world of mad scientist and the monsters they create, but with the strange abilities of her new friends, Anika is determined to learn the truth. What strange experiment is her father planning to do to her?


After the events in Devil in the Microscope, Anika and her friends are determined to get out of Moreau with scholarships and their lives. https://www.amazon.com/We-Shall-Monsters-Devil-Microscope/dp/1733908560/
