Hillingham in Hampstead, once the home of the well-to-do Westenra family, now divided into apartments. When teacher Kate Balcombe sets about renovating her flat in the attic, she finds an unsent letter, written 130 years before by Lucy, the nineteen-year-old daughter of the house.
You may know Lucy from Bram Stoker's Dracula... a pretty, flirtatious girl with three ardent suitors, she is Mina Harker's best friend. When Lucy falls mysteriously ill and dies, Van Helsing identifies her as a victim of the vampire.
But what if the monsters who hunt Lucy are much closer to home?
As Kate begins to investigate Lucy's story, she meets James Harker, Mina's great-great grandson, and together they uncover a long-hidden story of deception and murder.
