Synopsis
Strange happenings are afoot in Temstown. Everyone is saying vampires are to blame and the townsfolk have their stakes at the ready.
But Mina, Buffy and Bella, three unusual cousins, are about to discover a family secret - and an ancient book - that could change everything. Could their connection to Dracula give them the powers to heal - not cull - vampires?
Temstown is about to welcome its very first vampire healing company, Dracula & Daughters, and their first case is certainly close to the heart!
9+ readers will devour the atmospheric setting, the vampish powers and the gothic details - including a talking raven!... perfect for fans of Murder Most Unladylike, The Swifts and TV show, Wednesday.
