Publisher's Synopsis
Prof. Alfred Rhys Smythe returns home to Victorian London after years abroad only to discover that a blood-thirsty cult of vampires is stalking the city's theatre district. In the final installment of My Soul to Take: Part III, The Vampire Lord Unmasked, Smyth and Scotland Yard Inspector Arthur Jenkins close in on the leader of the vampire cult and prepare destroy the vile creature. With a rag-tag group of vampire hunters in tow, Smythe and Jenkins track the vampire master to his lair in hopes of saving Smythe's new love, a young actress, and Smythe's own mother, both of whom are being held hostage. The hunters finally confront the vampire master in the depths of an ancient crypt dating from Roman times. The crypt bears the remains of centuries of the most powerful vampires that have ever roamed the British Isles, which the vampire master plans to revive unless he can be stopped. In The Vampire Lord Unmasked, author William A. Veselik weaves a tale of mystery and edge-of-your-seat terror inspired by the eerie atmosphere and vivid action of the classic Hammer Horror films starring Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee.
