After receiving a distressing letter from a friend, Lady Anne Addison wastes no time in traveling to Yorkshire to offer whatever help she can. She has no idea what she'll find there, but she certainly wasn't expecting to be met by tales of a werewolf terrorizing the area - nor the dead body she discovers upon arriving. Driven by curiosity and a keen intelligence, Lady Anne dismisses the notion of such a beast, but she's nonetheless drawn into the mysteries by the secrecy surrounding her friend and the infuriating yet enticing Lord Darkefell.

Traditional Gothic with a modern Gaslamp twist
This book starts off with a stuffy Victorian feel but quickly morphs into something far more exciting. The POV character, Mina, was raised outside of traditional society and although she wears its trappings well and is engaged to a wonderful man of society whom she truly loves, she is not sure this is the life she is suited for. As with many of these books, she is written as a woman far ahead of her time.
When her past come barreling back into her life, Mina finds herself on a life-altering adventure with elements of Dracula, Van Helsing, lycanthopic legends, Jack the Ripper and even a bit of The Beagle and Mr. Flycatcher. The book maintained a theme though out of finding scientific explanations for the fantastic. Lots of action, and danger including violence and bloodshed.
This is book 1 in a trilogy and does end with a big reveal and cliff hanger for the next book. The narrator was easy to understand and did an excellent job with this book other than the bits of Dutch which were absolutely slaughtered. But perhaps that is what Mina would sound like attempting to speak broken Dutch?

Mina Murray, Van Helsing and Vampires
The Beast of London was a good take on the vampire genre with many familiar characters such as Mina Murray, Van Helsing, Jonathan Harker and of course Dracula. The story begins in London at the time of the Ripper murders and follows the character of Mina Murray who is now a school teacher. She is engaged to be married to Jonathan Harker and as they are out at a Society function there is an intrusion by a group of Vampires which abduct numerous people including her fiance Jonathan. Mina is in quite a state and goes on a quest to find Jonathan at all costs, she embarks on this quest with Abraham Van Helsing(her ex lover) who had just returned to town to try to enlist her help with said vampires who he believed were involved in the Ripper murders and also had bit his friends wife who was currently infected.
It is a different take on the classic Dracula story and has quite a big of action and intrigue and bit of romance and love triangle situation going on. The narration by Danielle Cohen was very good and her accents were pretty good. Overall I really enjoyed the story and some of the surprises that came to light. I am interested to see how it continues in future installments.

A Wonderfully Entertaining Vampire Adventure
I received this book for free. I am voluntarily leaving this review and all opinions expressed herein are mine.
This is the first book in the Mina Murray series. It is not a standalone book and has a cliffhanger ending. None of the issues/problems raised in this book are resolved. While I can understand that the main issue may not be resolved in a multi-book story, at least resolve some minor issues to provide the reader some satisfaction or a sense of completion. I am not a fan of this type of gimmick and that's really the only reason why this book did get a five-star rating.
Here, Mina used to travel with her father, who was a researcher/scientist. After her father's death, under circumstances Mina wants to forget a d not believe to be true, she comes to London. In London, Mina becomes a teacher and engaged to Jonathon. Jonathon's mother believes Mina to be beneath Jonathon's status and is not shy about letting Mina know her distaste regarding the engagement. Mina and Jonathon attend a ball when out of the blue, Mina's former love interest Abraham shows up. Soon thereafter, Jonathon is kidnapped. Mina joins forces with Abraham to find Jonathon and hunt down the vampires responsible for her father's death.
This is a very well written reformulation of Dracula in a wonderful descriptive writing style filled with action-packed sequences, historical tidbits, plenty of blood lusting monsters, and emotional drama. The focus here is on Mina - a strong, smart woman - completely different than other women of her time - she is assertive, independent, has a job and is more than willing to break the societal mores of her time. Part of Mina's journey is discovering more about who she is and where she comes from - as well as accepting some of these facts. I loved the historical "retelling" of events if vampires were to exist.
The narrator did a great job. She complimented the story by adding a lot of emotion and tension to her reading. This was the first time that I have had the opportunity of listening to her work and I really enjoyed it.

New Twist on a Character I Love
The Beast of London by L.D. Goffigan was so good! I loved the new twist on the character of Mina from the Dracula stories. I was immediately pulled into this book. The author wrote vivid imagery and great details. This book was classified as Supernatural and Paranormal under Mystery and Thrillers. I found it to be so much more. I will definitely listen to more books by this author and narrator. Danielle Cohen was magical bringing the characters to life. She has a rich articulate voice that is perfect for this time period listen. I requested this review copy auidobook and have voluntary written this review. I definitely want to continue this Mina Murray series.

I’ve already bought the Next Book.....
I’m gushing over this book! This retelling of Mina, Johnathon, Lucy and Van Helsing’s story had me completely engrossed. I love when a talented and articulate author dares to retell a classic like Bram Stokers Dracula. Creating a new backstory and bringing the mystery and adventure forward is exciting. I love Mina apart from her internal/external repeated dialog of “we must find Johnathon” (we get that...it’s why you left London). Is something/someone following them to Transylvania? HA! No Spoilers.
The Narrator on this book was EXCELLENT! I was completely immersed. I’m actually bummed the next book isn’t on Audible but I already bought the next book on Kindle anyway!
*I was given a free copy of this book in lieu of an honest review ......and it is this book comes highly recommended by me.

Not your average Vampire story! 👍🏼👍🏼
I enjoyed listening to this! It was a bit slow in the beginning but picked up rather quickly. It is a quick listen and I was ready to listen to the following book due to the big cliff hanger at the end!! Ugh! No recording for the second book yet! The narration was excellent! The voices for each of the characters were done so well and I was able to distinguish each from the other. Great story about a strong young woman in a mans world who can hold her own and throw a knife! Well done!

A completely fresh view of a well known tale
From as far back as I can remember I have always loved to read the old fashioned gothic atmospheric classics of the past . From Dracula to Frankenstein ... phantom of the opera and the jack the ripper tales this genre has always been my favourite. From the minute I saw the cover of this book I already knew that I would love this. They say never judge a book by its cover but I was already intrigued. I loved hearing the fresh take and concept on such a well known and classic tale. It made me rethink and look at dracula in a completely new light. Mina's character just appealed to me . She is so strong powerful and such a good female character. I urge people to listen to this novel as its familiar but yet completely new and outside of the box. I was given this book by the author/narrator in return for an honest and unbiased review

Loved this!!
A brilliant start to the series.
I almost don't want Mina to rescue Johnathon as I love the tension between her and Abe. The side characters add to the drama and mystery.
The story is packed full of adventure and suspense. I couldn't put it down.
The narration is excellent.
I can't wait to listen to the rest of the series.
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reading audio copy.
