Danica, a psychologist, is working at a London forensic hospital containing… patient Martin Foster, who murdered a fourteen-year-old girl in homage to Báthory. When Maria, an old friend, reveals passages from what she claims is Báthory’s long-lost diaries, and lures Danica into a complex social sphere, Danica must decide what she is willing to risk to satisfy her attraction to Báthory’s ominous legend. Explicit descriptions of violence. 2011.
