It is 1888; Dracula has married Queen Victoria and turned a large percentage of the population into the undead.
Following vampire Geneviève Dieudonné and explorer Charles Beauregard on the trail of the Ripper murders, this panoramic novel of altered history brilliantly reinvents the world of late Victorian melodrama.
Familiar and sinister figures from literature and history emerge from the fog, along with some shocking truths.
Queen Victoria consorts with Count Dracula in this ingenious historical romp peopled by historic characters. (Oct.)
