After half a century of captivity, Sinjen Carlyle is allowed out alone for New Year's Eve. The vampire spends the night in Whitby, meeting a thief named Jack and his sister Carol, an enterprising madam. However, it is a chance meeting in a tea house that will change the course of Sinjen's afterlife.
Miriam Green is a hardworking, quirky young woman whose proper exterior conceals an adventurous, imaginative spirit. She's drawn to Sinjen's impulsivity, while he is captivated by her resemblance to a companion of his distant youth. Needing a friend who can help him get back in touch with his humanity, Sinjen begins to find excuses to spend time with her.
A brutal attack on Jack, the discovery of vampire hunters in town, and the constant threat of his sadistic mistress may distract Sinjen from more pleasant pursuits, but could the secrets he keeps from Miriam about the true nature of vampires be the biggest problem of all?
The first book in the Idle Hands series, Like Father, Like Son, is a Gothic Victorian tale that mixes glamour, humour, and horror to delicious effect.
