A Light of Little Radiance

CO-AUTHORED WITH KEITH ANTHONY BAIRD

“If Stoker, Le Fanu and Lumley ever wrote a book together, this would be it. Old-style vampire tale, old-school vampires, that dychotomy between good and evil, right and wrong, the weight of the survival instinct us the weight of faith and religion… wow. What a ride!”

Goodreads

“Prepare for horror scenes that will literally have your jaw dropping to the floor. No one is safe in this novel. Readers who enjoy a good horror novel that draws you in with an engaging storyline, and then slaps you with a scene you didn’t see coming? Then this is the story for you!’

Selina Dragavei wanders the northern wastes in fear of persecution from the Holy Roman Church. In Europe’s Dark Age, witchfinders scour the lands and traveller folk such as she are put to flame and suffering. On the ruthless steppes, she evades them but something far sinister will lay claim to her soul.

Returning to the world of men, a dark, transformed Selina has a thirst for blood and only the drift down through the centuries will quench it. But she won’t make that journey alone, as she determines to bring others to her. As a troupe of entertainers, they attend pageants, festivals, and even royal galas, where a family bound to darkness feed on unsuspecting mortals. Such debauchery, however, does not go unnoticed. Famed witchfinder, Desider von Brandenburg, becomes obsessed with bringing this band of vampire-devils to a righteous cleansing, and so a deadly game of cat and mouse ensues.

Will the holy man bring God’s wrath down upon them, or will Selina and her nightwalkers battle the might of Heaven and emerge unscathed? Only instinct, cunning, and a little luck under the watch of a wolf moon will tell…

Beverley Lee is a bestselling dark fiction author who lives close to the dreaming spires of Oxford, England. Her work specialises in atmospheric horror, creeping dread, and broken boys - sometimes altogether - but are always filled with heart and the tenuous threads of relationships pushed to the brink. All the Feels all the time. Vampires are her first love and occasionally they stop whispering long enough for her to write other books. When she's not writing you'll find her rambling through the countryside, dreaming about male vampires kissing, and exploring time-worn graveyards.
