獨立年輕，愛吃棋格蛋糕又是辯論社主席，一看就是天選之人。Mo不懂大英帝國吸血鬼女王的頭銜和職責是如何降臨到她肩上的，她不過就是在陰雨天騎腳踏車回家而已。不過能免掉體育課，還有帥哥相伴，這似乎也不算太糟…對嗎？Meet Mo Merrydrew - independent young woman, Mini Battenberg fan, president of the debating society - and reluctant vampire queen ... Fifteen-year-old Mo Merrydrew isn't exactly expecting to be asked to be Vampire Queen of Great Britain when she's cycling home from school one wet Tuesday evening.

But - if you're Vampire Queen, you probably don't have to do PE any more, and when the dreamy Luca, a vampire familiar, turns up, it all suddenly starts to look a bit more appealing ...
