Liliana finds herself caught in the crossfire of the scheming, bloodthirsty nobility of the Continent. Enemies lurk not just across the border but even within the ranks of El’s family at Castle Finsterwald.
As she uncovers secrets about the past and the power of the vampiric Curse, Liliana must find her own ways to fight in order to protect her daughter and the man she starts to, against better judgment, fall for once more.
--
In the second book of the ‘A Tale Of’ series, castles, noble families, ancient artefacts, duels, political intrigue, and romantic tension await (fade to black or closed door).

" [...] Never forget that I am a hunter, and you are my prey! [...]"
Wow! The second part of the "A Tale of" series entitled "A Tale of Something Red" by D.S. McColgan is an excellent novel about vampires. There was so much going on here that it was a very emotional story for me. I was rooting for the main character. Thanks to her and some of the vampires, I was moved to tears.
My favourite characters from this part are Liliana and her little daughter Annie. Who is the father of her child? Is the girl, like her mother, a human? In "A Tale of Something Red" they will experience terrifying scenes. Are you curious how they cope among the vampires themselves? I wouldn't want to be in their shoes. I would feel like their future victim. I would be afraid for my life.
Lord Eldric is a vampire and as you know from the previous part, the head of the family. Of course, not everyone likes it. In his own way, he is in love with Lilianna. And I really don't like him. Or rather, his stupid behaviour, excuse me. And it could have been so beautiful.
Vampires love to drink blood and of course fight for influence. Do family ties mean anything to them?
The author presented excellent fight scenes. Thanks to her descriptions, I was shocked. I imagined these scenes in my head.
Remember! Vampires are vile liars and manipulators. Be careful while reading. In this book, I found great maps and a family tree of a certain family. It is worth taking a closer look.
The great cover also deserves your attention. The plot and action are so great that I couldn't tear myself away from reading. The characters are diverse, and the ending caused my heart to stop for a moment. I need to read the next part because I want to know what happens next. I hope that author D.S. McColgan doesn't make us wait too long for it.
If you love vampires, you can't miss this title.
