In the first of a supernatural trilogy, one Dr. Alice Doyle finds that the power to fight evil comes from places shed never believe. . . While the sounds of battle echo through the sky, a lady doctor has more than enough trouble to keep her busy even in a sleepy hamlet outside London. But the threat is nearer home than Alice knows. German agents have infiltrated her beloved countryside--Nazis who can fly, read minds, and live forever. Theyre not just fascists. Theyre vampires. Alice has no time for fantasy, but when the corpses start appearing sucked dry, shell have to accept help where she can get it. If that includes a lowly Conscientious Objector who says hes no coward though he refuses to fight, and her very own grandmother, a sane, sensible woman who insists that shes a Devonshire Pixie, so be it. Indeed, whatever it takes to defend home and country from an evil both ancient and terrifyingly modern. . .
