Ruth Kessler keeps records for a living. That spring her husband Owen, a notary, comes home nine days late from closing a cash purchase of forty-one parcels on a ridge above a dying town, with a notebook about a house with no mirrors. By summer her oldest friend, Delia Hartley, is walking at night in Salt Harbor with marks on her neck that a local doctor calls a spider and a hematologist from Brooklyn calls something else. Three men, a customs officer who lost a ship, and every page Ruth has ever dated end up in the same folder, against something that has been keeping its own register for eight hundred years.

Adapted from Bram Stoker's novel Dracula (1897). Published by TalesReborn.
