THE VAMPIRE; Or, Detective Brand’s Greatest Case
"Yes, Virginia, there were vampire novels before Dracula... A great discovery by two of the leading vampire scholars of our time!" -Leslie S. Klinger, editor, New Annotated Dracula and In the Shadow of Dracula.
"Rhodes and Browning have unearthed a rare gem, certainly the vampire fan's mandatory 'next read'. There are enough strange similarities to Bram Stoker's Dracula that I wonder if my great grand uncle read this tale on one of his Lyceum Theatre tours in America around the same time." -Dacre Stoker, bestselling author and great grandnephew of Bram Stoker.
"A remarkable discovery! Vampire fans will go batty!'“ -Tony Timpone, Editor Emeritus (1985-2010), FANGORIA Magazine
