As Monster High prepares for its annual talent show, Frankie Stein is left wondering what they could perform. When Torelei Stripe mocks Frankies music playing abilities, Frankie is left even more confused about which of their brain parts is exciting enough for the talent show.

Luckily, Headmistress Bloodgood presents Frankie with new information about their brain that might hold the answer.

Plagued by dreams from the scientists life, Frankie teams up with Draculaura and Clawdeen to discover the truth about their pastand save Monster High in the process.

Reviews

With its cinematic pacing and contemporary slant told through a fantasy lens, expect readers of series such as Percy Jackson to find much to enjoy here. Satisfying and substantial. * Kirkus *
