While her beloved husband is away at war, Agata manages their estate and dairy. One night, she is called to assist a first-year heifer. She does not know a vampire lurks in the darkness. Agata wakes in the birthing barn disoriented, wounded, bitten, and defiled. Her son is injured, but alive. The herdsman is discovered with his throat gnawed open. Several cows are missing.

Plunged into a strange existence of monstrous cravings, she moves to secure her children’s futures before the details of the attack is known. News spreads quickly in her village.

Unaided, she crosses the mountains to an ancient crumbling Roman fort where it is said the vampire resides. However, the vampire doesn’t live alone.

Review

In a time full of many fluff vampire stories, having them so romanticized, you lose the heart of where the vampire stories came from. Elizabeth Guizzetti manages to take us back to that in a wonderfully executed way. 

I loved the imagination the author showed with both her world and her characters.

It's a great fluid piece of writing that makes for a quick read.
