PANDORA ENGLISH:
The Blood Countess by Tara Moss
The Blood Countess by Tara Moss
She's Just A Writer Who Sees Things As They Truly Are!
Nineteen
year old Pandora has big dreams, dreams that involve getting away from
her stuffy small town and moving to New York, and luckily for her that's
just what she is doing. Stepping of the plane, being met by a
chauffeured driver, having an interview with her dream job lined up for
the morning, Pandora couldn't be happier.
But then she discovers her new home to be a strange old building in a suburb that no one seems to know exists, she is awoken in the night by a spectre who is as surprised to be seen as Pandora is to see him, and her interview for Mia magazine that was to be her big break into fashion journalism turns out to be a disaster.

Despite the setbacks Pandora manages to
find a job with another fashion magazine. She also exposes an age old
secret to youthful beauty and in doing so manages to make some powerful
enemies, inhumanly powerful enemies who have been a long time dead.
Vampire is such a nasty term for these beings, but then some of these
beings are particularly nasty.
The Blood Countess introduces Pandora to the world of fashion, journalism and the undead. The sanguine (vampires) are making a profit from the lives of the innocent and taking over the New York fashion scene. Pandora, like her name sake, is a girl with hidden gifts, gifts that she is only now starting to understand. A somewhat naive but very likeable female leads in this fun new gothic series.
