The New Blood: 1919
A short story from the world of Department 19.
In 1891, Abraham Van Helsing and a group of friends faced Dracula, the world’s first vampire – and won. The survivors of that battle founded Department 19, and have been secretly saving the world ever since. A highly classified archive exists recording every act of bravery in that time.

London, 1919.
Safely returned from the killing fields of Europe, Quincey Harker is bored and restless, his mind full of the terrible things he has seen, things he cannot seem to forget. So when his father invites him to hear a proposition from him and his friends, Quincey is hopeful that a new project may be just the thing to take his mind off the monsters he encountered, terrible creatures that flew above the ground and killed without mercy. He has no idea quite how wrong he is…

An excellent little look into the beginnings of department 19, filling in some of the back story nicely.

This is a series of Novellas that gives us readers a short back story of how Department 19 was started. I can't wait to read the second book, with the third book coming out soon!
