Set in seventeenth-century England, at the height of the Great Plague epidemic, To Be Damned is a traditional vampire tale in the vein of Bram Stoker's Dracula. Christian Coleswitten is a priest's apprentice, summoned from his thankless job of tending to those dying of the plague by the lecherous Father Samuel Stemmons. In seeking some holy artifact or relic which would ward off the plague, Father Stemmons has chanced upon an oddity that at first blush appears divine in nature. The small rural town of Manasseh has not reported a single death from the plague - or a single death at all - in over twenty years. Tasking Christian with traveling to Manasseh and deducing the cause of the apparent stout health of its residents, Father Stemmons appoints the Scot mercenary Cotton Smith-Patton to act as his ward's bodyguard. Together, the two encounter all manner of strange and diabolical characters before their journey's horrific end. In the midst of an evil as old as mankind, Christian unexpectedly encounters the seductive beauty, Cassandra, who nightly stalks his dreams. Almost too late he discovers the unholy secret that lies beyond the passion in her eyes, and in his tortured soul comes to realize that she is among those-To Be Damned.

Thirty-two days underground. No heat. No sunlight. 4 June 1938. Nathaniel Kleitman and his research student make their way down the seventy-one steps leading to the mouth of Mammoth Cave. They are about to embark on one of the most intrepid and bizarre experiments in medical history, one which will change our understanding of sleep forever. Undisturbed by natural light, they will investigate what happens when you overturn one of the fundamental rhythms of the human body. Together, they enter the darkness. When Kleitman first arrived in New York, a penniless twenty-year-old refugee, few would have guessed that in just a few decades he would revolutionise the field of sleep science. In Mapping the Darkness, Kenneth Miller weaves science and history to tell the story of the outsider scientists who took sleep science from the fringes to a mainstream obsession. Reliving the spectacular experiments, technological innovation, imaginative leaps and single-minded commitment of these early pioneers, Miller provides a tantalising glimpse into the most mysterious third of our lives.
