Community rating: 3/5 from 3 ratings.
Sold into marriage by her father’s reckless gamble, Mina Murray travels across Europe to wed a Transylvanian nobleman cloaked in mystery.
The castle towers above the mountains, a fortress of stone and silence that seems to watch her every step. Once inside, she feels trapped within a gilded cage—every door locked, every corridor alive with listening shadows.
The Count is charming, yet secretive, and Mina soon realizes the truth her new husband conceals may be far more monstrous than she dares imagine. Silenced and far from home, she must trust her instincts if she hopes to survive the castle—and the master who rules it.
Midnight Covenant, the first book in a haunting gothic duology inspired by Bram Stoker’s Dracula, is a tale of dread and suspense, following a heroine who must reclaim her voice in a world determined to silence her.
