Timeless. Beautiful. Dangerous.

1816 ? the Year Without a Summer ? resulted in two of literature's most feared and beloved creations.

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein.

Doctor Polidori's Vampyre.

American biographer, Rachel Walton, attained international recognition for her Shelley bio, unearthing the horrific events which jolted Frankenstein and his wretch into existence on the shores of Lake Geneva, Switzerland. What she hadn't expected during her research was to fall in love with a man of gigantic structure, of uncommon beauty, of intriguing origin.

Her research for the Polidori biography proves as startling. The publication of his Vampyre tale unearths a gothic horror that crawls from beneath the sod into London's ballrooms, grand townhomes and hotels; daring to invade the salons and bedchambers of the Royal family to satisfy its thirst. And despite the seeming impossibility of her findings Rachel must again confront the unexpected horror and consequences of true love.
