Frankenstein Resurrected is the first part to an ambitious epic trilogy creatively adapting and combining the characters and scenarios of the celebrated horror classics, Frankenstein and Dracula, preserving the original stories of both perfectly intact without corrupting or distorting either. This initial entry sets the stage for a literally soul-searching retelling of the Frankenstein tale-a provocative saga of ultimate human arrogance and inevitable vengeance as monster challenges his maker-by fleshing out those narrative elements which Mary Shelley only sketched while directly confronting what she carefully skirted: the deeply profound mystery and secret of the human spirit itself.

With the grisly murder of a famous true crime writer and author of Zodiac books, former San Francisco homicide inspector, Dave Toski, aka Unsavory Dave, is called out of retirement to consult with two city detectives trying to track down a latter-day Zodiac Killer, who may or may not be a copycat. At the same time, the city is plagued by a separate series of serial crimes committed by a rogue gang of Black Muslims trying to extort control of the very private security company employing Toski as its operations director.
