Description

"The Lady of the Shroud," a tale spun with Bram Stoker's signature blend of mystery and the supernatural, invites readers to the Balkans, where Rupert Saint Leger inherits a vast estate under the condition that he lives there for a year. His new life takes a turn towards the uncanny when he encounters a mysterious woman draped in a shroud, seemingly risen from the dead. As Rupert delves into the mystery, he uncovers a plot that threatens the kingdom itself. Stoker weaves a thrilling narrative of love, bravery, and the spectral, challenging the boundaries between life and death.

Author

Bram Stoker (1847–1912) wrote Dracula and then had to live in its shadow. An Irishman in London, he kept Irving's theatre running by day and, by night, invented a vampire who travels by timetable and feeds on paperwork as much as blood. The novel is a collage of voices; the monster is organised. Later cinema gave him a look; Stoker gave him a method. Twenty titles sit here, most of them quieter than the one that named a genre.
