Description

For you, perceptive reader, I bequeath my background,.Late one-night, exploring her father's library, a woman finds an old book and a cache of yellowing letters. The letters are addressed to "My dear and unfortunate successor," and they plunge her right into a world she never imagined-a labyrinth where in actuality the secrets of her father's past and her mother's mysterious fate connect with an inconceivable evil hidden in the depths of history.The letters provide links to 1 of the darkest powers that humanity has ever known-and to a centuries-long journey to obtain the supply of that darkness and wipe it out. It's a pursuit of the reality about Vlad the Impaler, the medieval ruler whose barbarous reign formed the foundation of the story of Dracula. Generations of historians have risked their reputations, their sanity, and even their lives to understand the reality about Vlad the Impaler and Dracula.
