Pix: a mysterious young man who knows Evaline kills vampires and is also an attractive rogue. Fun Charactersīesides Mina, Evaline, and Irene Adler, here’s a list of the main reoccurring characters: This little mystery also appears in all the books. There’s also an eerie black dirigible that slinks over London at night, searching for something. But I will add that the scarab plays a continued role in the series. Strangers and unlikely partners, it soon becomes apparent that they don’t play well together.īecause it’s a mystery I’m being stingy with the plot elements. It’s London, 1889, and Mina and Evaline meet each other for the first time when Irene Adler on behalf of Princess Alix commissions them to solve the mystery of two missing society girls. Their alliance swings in wild directions as neither girl trusts the other, but by the end of the book, they gain a better understanding of the team they could become. Although they are opposites and seem incompatible, they occasionally manage to put their difference aside to solve the mystery. Mina is logical, methodical, and as annoying as her uncle, while Evaline is a loner, impulsive, and takes unnecessary risks. Mina Holmes, as observant as her famous Uncle Sherlock, and Evaline Stoker, the vampire fighting sister of Bram Stoker, team up to solve the mystery of two missing socialite. If you are a Holmes fan and if you like vampires, or if you just like mysteries and vampires, this series drops the reader into a dangerous world of adventure, mystery, and romance. The series echoes a Sherlock Holmes style of mystery.
Colleen Gleason’s “The Clockwork Scarab” combines mystery, vampires, and Steampunk into a diverting romp.
