Fergus Hume's Gothic mystery begins one evening in late-nineteenth-century Verona, when a young Englishman loses his way and finds himself lost in an eerie graveyard. Seeing a mysterious woman emerge from one of the tombs, he follows her to a deserted mansion, where he witnesses a murder worthy of the Borgias. How can such a crime take place undetected in the prosaic nineteenth century? And is the woman a vampire? a ghoul? or an altogether more earthly villain...? 

A fin-de-siecle crime thriller from the author of The Mystery of a Hansom Cab, this is a classic Victorian mystery dripping with period atmosphere and and Italian romance.
