A must-read, historical fiction of vampires!  Laugh-out-loud moments, even with the seriousness of the plot.

1899 New York

Tillie's sister, Lucy, is killed, drained of blood.  This leads Tillie to research the mystery of vampires.
While trying to solve Lucy's murder, Tillie meets many characters; some lovable and some not so lovable.
