Thirty-fourth in line to the throne – and England’s poorest heiress – Lady Georgiana finds herself in a truly draining state of affairs . . .
With my hateful brother Binky in town, I’ve been desperately seeking an escape. To my delight, it comes in the form of an invitation from the Queen to represent the royals at a wedding in Transylvania-legendary home of vampires.
I soon realise why I was the one honoured with such an invitation. The bride, Princess Maria Theresa, happens to be my old school chum, Matty. But my stay in her macabre-looking castle turns unnerving when I find dear Matty with blood running down her chin. Then, during the ceremony, a prominent wedding guest is poisoned. Something must be done lest the nuptial festivities go to ruin, or, worse yet, the couple’s vows become: to love and to cherish, till undeath do us part . . .
