      Meet Greta Helsing, doctor to the undead.

      After inheriting a highly specialised, and highly peculiar, medical practice, Dr Helsing spends her days treating London''s undead for a host of ills: vocal strain in banshees, arthritis in barrow-wights and entropy in mummies. Although barely making ends meet, this is just the quiet, supernatural-adjacent life Greta''s dreamed of since childhood.

      But when a sect of murderous monks emerges, killing human undead and alike, Greta must use all her unusual skills to keep her supernatural clients - and the rest of London - safe.

      ''Shaw balances an agile mystery with a pitch-perfect, droll narrative and cast of loveable misfit characters''
