Bücher der Reihe Count Saint-Germain

The year is 1817. In Switzerland, the Count has become intrigued by the work of an Austrian noble who is investigating the properties of blood, a subject always of key interest to a vampire. But when the noble's beautiful young ward fixates sexually on the Count, the vampire fears that it is his blood the Austrian will be most interested in!

The vampire Count Saint-Germain, disguised as a missing Hungarian nobleman, is on a spy mission in the heart of Czarist Russia. Almost by the power of his will alone, Peter the Great is wresting the city that will one day be St Petersburg out of swampland.

Writer Erneste van Amstelijaxter, whose goodness inspires Santo-Germano, is threatened with the inquisition. Pier-Ariana Salier, a musician who has been Santo-Germano's lover, loses her home and livelihood to an unscrupulous spymaster. Worse, a spy has discovered the vampire's true nature and intends to kill him.
