    Можно ли общаться с духами умерших? Мина Холмс, племянница и последовательница всемирно известного сыщика, считает, что нет. Впрочем, она и в вампиров не верит, чем ставит под сомнение призвание Эвалайн Стокер, своей напарницы и потомственной охотницы на вампиров.

    По просьбе Александры, принцессы Уэльской, девушки обращают внимание на юную Уиллу Эштон, чье пристрастие к спиритическим сеансам после смерти матери и исчезновения брата становится маниакальным. Мисс Холмс полна скепсиса и считает все это чьей-то хитрой уловкой.

    Но если ничего сверхъестественного не существует, откуда взялись слухи о людях с красными глазами, разгуливающих ночами по улицам Лондона? Что холодит шею мисс Стокер - легкий ветерок или присутствие вампира?.. В шипении паровых двигателей слышится зловещий шепот, в тенях мелькают темные силуэты. Девушкам придется найти ответы на самые неожиданные вопросы - или принять необъяснимое.

    If you sell your soul to the devil…can you ever get it back?

    Dark, passionate stories of love and redemption…

    The men and women of the Vampire Dracule are tied to Lucifer for eternity. In exchange, the Dracule are given immortality and power…and a guilt-free life of pleasure, wealth, and freedom.

    No one can touch them. No man can control them.
    No mortal can destroy them…unless they find love.

    But Lucifer will not release those who are bound to him without a fight.
In a battle of good versus evil, love versus hate, only the strongest souls can win freedom from the devil.
    ~~

    Even after centuries of lust, hedonism, and women, Voss rarely finds himself bored. As a member of the Dracule, he is a rogue of the first order, a man who loves nothing more than a warm woman, excellent vintage, and even a puzzling challenge to keep his mind active.

    But when one of his seemingly harmless manipulations sets him on the path to seduce the beautiful Angelica Woodmore, things become a little less simple…a lot more passionate…and definitely more complicated.

    And when the most evil vampire of the Dracule puts Angelica in his sights, Voss will have to risk everything to save her…and possibly his own soul.
