A gothic vampire story along the lines of Dracula/Camilla filled with magical talismons, horror, and a very interesting take on a vampire story.The story follows Sir Ashleigh Carruthers, a English gentlemen and war veteran who is also very jaded about love, He finds himself going to visit an old friend but when he goes to a church service he finds that he is sitting next to the beautiful and mysterious woman in black. The Church services goes oddly and then Cuarruthers has questions and begins to investigate the Woman in black, And so begins this cozy read, it definitely is a cozy victorian gothic read that I would recommend for the spooky season!
