First book in this two part series. The main premise of the books is a girl, Sabrina is called back home from school in England after the deaths of her parents. Back at the mansion she grew up in are her best friend Eric , her weird uncle Viktor and her weirdly unchanged cousin Jeremy. When the will is read it turns out Sabrina is the sole beneficiary of her parents estate which upsets Viktor. It turns out unsurprisingly that he is a Vampire I mean the title gives it away. But deep within the house is a treasure that he has been searching for, for years. When it’s revealed that he turned Jeremy into a vampire and his plan is to do the same to Sabrina, she enlists Eric and other friends to literally tear apart the house looking for the book and that’s where we get the to be continued…
Even though the book isn’t very eventful I liked the character well enough and the pace was pretty fast but ugh book two is next.
