Reckoning - Paperback

by Kate Cary (Author)

A young woman finds herself trapped in a world of darkness and fear in this gripping paranormal thriller.

"Readers familiar with the story of Dracula will be consumed . . . by the struggles of the well-delineated characters, as well as the many plot twists and turns."--School Library Journal

Mary Seward thought she had escaped the darkness of Transylvania. But now, back in England, she has terrible nightmares, fears the darkness, and sees vampires everywhere she turns. When a strange virus weakens her father, Mary suspects that there's a far more sinister explanation for the disease than doctors can provide.

Then Mary's worst nightmare comes true: Quincey Harker, heir to Count Dracula's bloodline, appears in England. He declares his eternal love for her and claims he has renounced his evil heritage.

Is he telling the truth--or playing a deadly game?
