"Oscar Wilde and the Vampire Murders "opens in 1890, at a glamorous
party hosted by the Duke and Duchess of Albemarle. All of London's
high society--including the Prince of Wales--are in attendance at
what promises to be the event of the season. Yet Oscar Wilde is
more interested in another party guest, Rex LaSalle, a young actor
who claims to be a vampire.
But the entertaining evening ends in tragedy when the duchess is
found murdered--with two tiny puncture marks on her throat.
Desperate to avoid scandal and panic, the Prince asks Oscar and his
friend Arthur Conan Doyle to investigate the crime. What they
discover threatens to destroy the very heart of the royal family.
Told through diary entries, newspaper clippings, telegrams, and
letters, "Oscar Wilde and the Vampire Murders "is a richly
atmospheric mystery that is sure to captivate and entertain.
