'The historian' by Elizabeth Kostova
Based on the legend of Vlad the Impaler, this is the story of a young girl who discovers an ancient and disturbing book in her father's library. It leads to terrible loss and tragedy, as well as uncovering Dracula's resting place.
Creepy and sinister, this thriller chills to the bone without resorting to shock, horror or gore on every page. This tale of vampire hunting in the twentieth century is brought to life with tremendous period and geographical details.
