Carmilla: The Return

Kyle Marffin's CARMILLA - THE RETURN

Kyle Marffin's provocative debut is a modern day retelling of J. S. Sheridan LeFanu's classic 19th century vampire novella CARMILLA. Gothic literature's most notorious female vampire, the seductive Countess Carmilla Karnstein, returns in this new novel, stalking an unsuspecting female victim through the glittery nightime streets of downtown Chicago, to the desolate midwestern northwoods and all the way back to her ancient Styrian homeland, glimpsing her unwritten history while replaying the events of the original with a decidedly contemporary twist. This a chilling vampire tale, rooted in the classic vampire tradition, with a generous dose of eroticism.
