Publisher's Summary

Bram Stoker kept secret a tale even more terrifying than Dracula.

It begins among the Carpathian peaks, when an intrepid explorer discovers a mysterious golden box. She brings it back with her to the foggy streets of Victorian London, unaware of its dangerous power…or that an evil beyond imagining has already taken root in the city.

Stoker, a successful theater manager but frustrated writer, is drawn into a deadly web spun by the wealthy founders of a mission house for the poor. Far from a safe haven, the mission harbors a dark and terrifying secret.

To save the souls of thousands, Stoker - aided by the explorer and a match girl grieving the loss of her child - must pursue an enemy as ancient as the Saharan sands where it originated. Their journey will take them through the city’s overgrown graveyards and rat-infested tunnels and even onto the maiden voyage of the world’s first “unsinkable” ship…

I enjoyed this

As I began listening to my first story by Robert Masello, I was relieved to find it so well-written, and the pace just perfect. I had to get used to Mr. Furlong’s very rapid reading, and after a while, it ceased to get in the way of my listening enjoyment.

Loved this book!!!

I have had this novel in my collection for awhile and FINALLY listened. I love these old type mummy type novels and the mystic around them. This novel did not disappoint. Great period piece and exotic surroundings - if you like this you will enjoy this book.

A little cheesy, a lot awesome

I loved it. I'm a fan of that very specific subgenre of historical mystery that involves fictionalized versions of real life characters battling serial killers in bizarre and often otherworldly situations. Yeah, it's actually a thing! And Robert Masello excels. This was a delight from start to finish, with a wonderfully weird plot, fiendish villains, heroes you can really root for, and an excellent narrator to bring it all to life. Yes, it was a little hokey, a little ridiculous, but that's part of what made it so fun. And the writing was still good.
Unequivocal two thumbs up.

Good story helped by great narration

I liked the story a lot. interesting characters, but not compelling. I don’t know what or who I was rooting for. The excellent narration added an enigmatic feeling not found in the words themselves.
