Lullaby for Vampires

In the moonless night, harried people hurried in amongst shadows and disappeared there like hollow spectres, then emerged full-bodied persons in the eerie lamplights. Shadowy carts and coaches battled their way in traffic like jousting knights of old, and all the strife and tumult of the city continued in a sort of bleak, despairing mission of so many always going somewhere, yet nowhere.In this newest book in the Scrooge and Cratchit: Detectives series, Scrooge and his nephew, Edmund, along with Cratchit and their martial-arts expert secretary, Abigail, embark on a journey to Transylvania and team up with two Texan cowboys to solve the case of a missing woman and a gruesome murder.

With women being kidnapped across Europe and rumours of numerous undead invading London, the game is surely afoot as the detectives and their comrades face their most puzzling and perilous set of mysteries yet.
