Sooner or later, all vampires go mad . . .

A killer stalks the rain-shrouded streets of Victorian London, leaving a trail of brutalized, bloodless corpses in his wake. While most suspect Jack the Ripper has returned, a select few know that a far darker force is at play.

Charlotte Murray, a socialite with a secret, is plagued by nightmares of a beautiful young man with a strange hunger. Gabriel Harding, her childhood love, now a charming and charismatic man-about-town, can no longer outrun the demons from his past. Leo Eriksson, an unwilling, centuries-old vampire, is losing his grip on reality.

The three soon find themselves embroiled in a web of death, obsession, madness, and revenge as they investigate the horrific killings, drawing ever closer to the enigmatic figure at the heart of it all.

A dark, atmospheric gothic read that completely swept me away into the foggy, blood-slicked streets of 1891 London.

The pacing here is a deliberate, steady burn, and it works beautifully. Instead of rushing through the narrative, the author drops breadcrumbs of the mystery bit by bit, allowing the tension to coil tighter and tighter with every single chapter. I genuinely thought I had the trajectory of the plot figured out early on, but the twists and turns caught me completely off guard.

The setting was an absolute standout. Immersive historical atmospheres are my weakness, and the inclusion of letters and journal entries brought the Victorian mindset to life so vividly.

⁉️QOTD: Would you rather visit gothic historic London or contemporary London?
