I loved the Romanian folklore and  the historical setting of the small rural village. 

There are gothic and scary threads throughout this story as a young woman is intent on bringing her the soul of her sister from the underworld and a vampire to guide her.

This was a interesting slant on vampires and gothic themes and interesting that there was no chapters but five sections again different.

Scary and quite a sad story so get the tissues out.
