(Wattpad picks: Up and coming List 06-07-18) The Great War is over. The guns are silent. The fires are quenched. The Dead are waking. Meg van Helsing grew up with a crucifix in one hand and a wooden stake in the other, her nose forever in a book. With the survivors and children of the band that killed Dracula, she keeps the south of England safe from the un-dead and never thinks twice about decapitating a revenant. The ghost of the War looms darker than Dracula's shadow. Until the night Quincey Harker disappears. Suddenly, her friends are under attack from all sides, beset by the blood-hungry corpses of un-dead soldiers, as another monster appears in their midst: an incubus, lethally attractive. The young man needs help, and Meg doesn't want to believe he is sending the attacks. If only she could convince them she is immune to his spell. Someone wants the Dracula gang dead at all costs. The answer lies in old magic, blood sorcery, and a secret kept for twenty-five years. If Meg wants her friends to live, she'll have to open her eyes.
