The ancient fortress sits on the border with the newly-regained territory of Transylvania, and w as a gift to Queen Marie from her people.

So, putting aside their doubts, Russell and Holmes set out to investigate the mystery in a land of long memory and hidden corners - a land that had known Vlad the Impaler...A land from whose churchyards the shades creep.
