Royal Blood

Historical and fictional characters come together and change the future of Africa forever. Renowned actress Lady Ellen Terry detective Sherlock Holmes financier Cecil Rhodes hunter/naturalist Frederick Courtney Selous King Lobengula and a mysterious undead adventuress named Paulette Monot become chess pieces in the Great Game which takes the form of Africas First Matabele War. It is unlikely that anyone will ever read this. In fact if you are perusing these pages and youre not one of the Kin (vampires to the uninitiated) it is almost certain that theres either been some sort of terrible mistake or that I (Miss Paulette Monot) have decided to take a mortal lover. The latter is perhaps more likely. Lucky you.
