We all know the story of Anna and Velkan Valerious, and the curse on their family...you know the one that says that if they die before they manage to kill Count Dracula, they are forever damned to walk in purgatory? What if the gypsy king, Boris Valerious had more than two children? What if there was a daughter who was born a year before Anna was born? Though who would know anything about her, except the fact that she had gone missing a year before her father had disappeared. Surely the Vatican only knows of Angelique Valerious because she had been known as the missing Valerious. That is basically all they know about her, other than the fact that she is the other daughter of Boris Valerious. Whether or not if she's perished during her years of missing, or if she's still alive, waiting to show herself is completely unknown to them. Once Gabriel Van Helsing and a friar named Carl set foot in the small village in Transylvania, where Princess Anna Valerious resides, Van Helsing and Carl learn the truth of what happened to the missing Valerious; do all that they can, to help the Valerious family kill Dracula, so they are not forever damned to walk in purgatory. Can Van Helsing save this family, and discover the truth behind why the middle Valerious went missing? Better yet, will they get to her in time, or will she forever remain a monster that she has been convinced that she was turned into? Or will all hope be lost and the Valerious bloodline be damned to not enter the gates of St. Peter? Read The Missing Valerious and find out.
