In Victorian London, where aristocrats live side by side with creatures of the night, a lawyer dares to take on a case others would refuse: he defends a vampire suspected in a string of brutal murders.
His client is Count Dracula, and among the witnesses are Van Helsing and the Phantom of the Opera.
To win an acquittal, the lawyer must enter a world where judgment is passed not only by the letter of human law, but also by the dark rules that govern after sunset.
In fog-shrouded London, where drawing rooms whisper about a mysterious handsome vampire and an elusive killer hunts in the alleyways at night, a tense investigation begins. An experienced lawyer takes on the defense of an ancient bloodsucker accused of a series of crimes, and quickly realizes he has stepped into a web of conspiracies and hidden secrets. On his path are the legendary Phantom of the Opera, the unyielding Van Helsing, the brilliant Irene Adler, and Count Dracula himself. High-society receptions, secret societies, dangerous riddles, and bloody reprisals intertwine into a single case. Will the defender be able to prove his client’s innocence—or will he become a pawn in a deadly game of immortals? Here, truth is more frightening than fiction, and justice hangs on a thin line between human laws and the laws of the night.
