    About this ebook

    The descendants of Elizabeth Bathory, a bloodthirsty Hungarian countess who terrorized the Carpathian countryside in the 16th century, are determined that her line shall not die. Fearing her heredity, Catherine, a paternal descendant, has escaped to a convent. Here she meets journalist Michael Devlin who is haunted by the last thing he saw before losing his sight.
