Royal Blood

by Rhys Bowen · 2014

In 1932 London, penniless Lady Georgiana Rannoch—34th in line to the throne and desperate to escape her meddlesome brother—receives a royal summons to represent the Crown at a wedding in Transylvania, the legendary land of vampires. What begins as a glamorous escape turns deadly when the bride, an old school friend, is found with blood on her chin and a prominent guest is poisoned during the ceremony. Georgie must navigate gothic castles, eccentric aristocrats, and a web of intrigue to prevent the nuptials from ending in "till undeath do we part." With wit, charm, and a dash of spooky suspense, this fourth entry in the Royal Spyness series delivers a delightful blend of historical mystery and macabre romance.
