Robert, my love, there isn’t much time. This will be my last communication, unless by some chance I survive… I have tried to report everything as it happened, so there can be no doubt about my veracity. I have to hurry or the sun will go down, and I will have to deal with this menace in the darkaHe has some plan in New York, that’s clear. He is a form of terrorist; but his terror is strange. It’s like a virus, and I have itaHe has put something terrible inside of me. Evangeline Harker, Associate Producer on television news magazine The Hour, is sent to Transylvania to scout out a possible story on a notorious Eastern European crime boss named Ion Torgu. But she finds the true nature of Torgu’s activities to be far more monstrous than she could have imagined.
In the New York office that once stood in the shadow of the Twin Towers, Evangeline’s disappearance causes uproar and a wave of guilt and recrimination. Then suddenly, months after her disappearance, she’s found convalescing in a Transylvanian monastery, her memory seemingly scrubbed. But then who was sending e-mails in her name? And what do those crates delivered to the office contain? And why does the show’s sound system appear to be infected with some strange aural virus? As a very dark Old-World atmosphere deepens in the halls of one of America’s most trusted television programmes, its employees are forced to confront a threat beyond their wildest imaginings. Written in the form of diary entries, e-mails and therapy journals, FANG LAND manages both to be a genuinely frightening vampire novel in the grand tradition and a biting commentary on the way we live and work now.
