London, 1890. Mina Murray once lived an adventurous life, but after a tragedy in the forests of Transylvania, she left it all behind.

But when vampires abduct Jonathan, her dark past comes careening into her present. Determined to rescue him, she teams up with her former paramour Abraham Van Helsing and his colleague, Scotland Yard Inspector John Seward.

As they pursue Jonathan's abductors from England to the Low Countries and beyond, Mina realizes that Jonathan's abduction is tied to a larger threat against humanity... .

Loved this!!

A brilliant start to the series.
I almost don't want Mina to rescue Johnathon as I love the tension between her and Abe. The side characters add to the drama and mystery.
The story is packed full of adventure and suspense. I couldn't put it down.
The narration is excellent.
I can't wait to listen to the rest of the series.

I voluntarily reviewed an advance reading audio copy.

A completely fresh view of a well known tale

From as far back as I can remember I have always loved to read the old fashioned gothic atmospheric classics of the past . From Dracula to Frankenstein ... phantom of the opera and the jack the ripper tales this genre has always been my favourite. From the minute I saw the cover of this book I already knew that I would love this. They say never judge a book by its cover but I was already intrigued. I loved hearing the fresh take and concept on such a well known and classic tale. It made me rethink and look at dracula in a completely new light. Mina's character just appealed to me . She is so strong powerful and such a good female character. I urge people to listen to this novel as its familiar but yet completely new and outside of the box. I was given this book by the author/narrator in return for an honest and unbiased review

Romance

I'd hoped forcan urban fantasy, instead I got a kind of regency romance.
the reader's voice is very well suited to the genre
