The year is 1897. Four years have passed since Jonathan Harker, his quick-witted wife Mina and Professor Van Helsing destroyed Count Dracula in the Carpathian Mountains. But when the trio reunite at Van Helsing’s London villa, they once again find themselves mixed up in a mysterious sequence of murders. A series of strange and gruesome killings are taking place across London. They seem to be connected to a collection of Ancient Egyptian artefacts, originally buried in the tomb of Pharaoh Karnos II. But Scotland Yard are refusing to accept that a long dead pharaoh could be exerting any influence over these deaths in the metropolis. Aided by Egyptologist Sarah Wilton, Harker and his friends must carry out their own careful investigations into the murders. Can Jonathan Harker solve this terrifying mystery? Or will he too fall prey to The Deadly Curse? ‘The Deadly Curse’ sees the return of Jonathan Harker, the hero of Bram Stoker's classic 'Dracula', in a chilling new historical mystery series.
