In October of 1806, the Little Season is in full swing, and Sally Fitzhugh has had enough of the endless parties and balls. With a rampant vampire craze sparked by the novel The Convent of Orsino, it seems no one can speak of anything else. But when Sally hears a rumor that the reclusive Duke of Belliston is an actual vampire, she cannot resist the challenge of proving such nonsense false. At a ball in Belliston Square, she encounters the mysterious Duke. Lucien, Duke of Belliston, is well versed in the trouble gossip can bring. He's returned home to dispel the rumors surrounding his parents' deaths. He welcomes his fearsome reputation - until a woman is found dead in Richmond. Her blood drained from her throat. Lucien and Sally join forces to stop the so-called vampire from killing again.

      Kate Reading's performance of this eleventh Pink Carnation installment showcases her clever use of accents, inflections, and perfectly timed wit. This Regency mystery follows Miss Sally Fitzhugh, who unites with the mysterious Lucien, Duke of Belliston, to uncover the mystery of his parents' grisly deaths and to quell rumors of a vampire stalking London. Reading brings the historic tale to life with her staid accent and droll wit, reveling in the gothic atmosphere and growing romantic tension between Sally and Lucien. She also brings energy and charm to the modern-day romance of doctoral student Eloisa and her British lover, Colin, whose narrative weaves through the historic plot. Listeners will delight in Reading's fully realized characters and immersive narration. B.E.K. © AudioFile 2014, Portland, Maine
