Late one night, a convoy passes through a remote Eastern European checkpoint. In the back of one of the trucks, a set of bones waits to be put back together, but these are no ordinary bones. And Edgar Le Compte was no ordinary vampire.

A little girl discovers that someone – or something – is living in the forest near her home. Whatever this creature is, it's wounded, but it's also slowly starting to get stronger.

For hundreds of years, they were one of the most feared vampire families in the world. Then, one day, they disappeared without warning, leaving behind only an abandoned castle and a few whispered rumors about their true nature. Some say that the Le Comptes were vampires.

Now they're back.

The Vampire's Grave and Other Stories is a collection of connected short stories, telling the tale of a ravenous vampire family and their return to the world.
