Bizarre murders are discovered in the castle of Prince Vlad the Impaler, otherwise known as Dracula. Could it be a copycat killer... or has the depraved prince been brought back to life?

Together with the arrogant yet charming Thomas Cresswell, she journeys to the dark heart of Romania, home to one of Europe's best schools of forensic medicine...and to another notorious killer, Vlad the Impaler, whose thirst for blood became legend.

MILANA'S REVIEW
Kerri has done it again! She’s written such a fun book with an awesome gothic feel and I liked this one even better than Stalking Jack The Ripper. And this is coming from a reader who doesn’t typically enjoy murder mysteries and refused to play Clue as a child.
My favourite part about the Audrey Rose and Thomas Cresswell adventures is their chemistry! They are so adorable and I love how much their friendship has blossomed. The best part about HPD was the vampire/gothic feel. Kerri has a way of writing dark words that make me squeal, it's just so delicious if that makes sense? If every book was written like this I’d be a happy little closet goth.
