While filming a small role in Draculania, a genderswapped remake of Bram Stoker's classic tale, Gwinny Tuffel finds life imitating art in the misty Yorkshire Dales. A cast member is found dead in a locked trailer, a stake through their heart. With a prima donna on set, mounting filming delays, and the chaos of caring for a friend's Jack Russell terrier, Gwinny has her hands full. Set against the eerie backdrop of Hendale Hall and its vampire lore, it's clear a flesh-and-blood killer has struck. Can Gwinny solve the mystery before anyone else finds themselves on the cutting-room floor?
