CGiii Comment

For those expecting a contemporary version of Carmilla...be warned, this is not it.

Why the blurb says it is...well, life is full of mysteries and some 'creative' marketing types.

The story is a mish-mash melodrama that seldom rises above the door-step level of interest. It takes a while to get going...and, when it does...it doesn't go very far.

Rest assured...this is not a horror...but, it does have some horrific elements. The writing for one.
