This time, Lori’s supernatural confidante may not be the only one who’s not quite dead…

Lori Shepherd takes on a potential vampire in Nancy Atherton’s thirteenth cosy mystery Aunt Dimity: Vampire Hunter. Perfect for fans of M. C. Beaton and Ann Granger.

‘Hardcore fans will no doubt enjoy’ – Publisher’s Weekly

Life in the Cotswolds couldn’t be more blissful for Lori Shepherd – except for one thing: her five-year-old twins have started school, and Lori fears her sons will catch everything from the flu to fleas. Then the twins come home one drizzly day and give her something truly terrifying to worry about.

Could the cloaked figure they see in the woods really have been a vampire? With Lori’s late (but not entirely departed) Aunt Dimity’s help, she begins to investigate. Her trail takes her to Leo, a charming vagabond; to a bitter old crone named Lizzie Black; and finally to Aldercot Hall, where a mysterious murder took place forty years ago. Can Lori uncover the true identity of the twins’ vampire before it’s too late?
