What is Mina's Child about?

<p><i>Mina's Child</i> imagines a second generation springing from the “heroes"' in Bram Stoker's </>Dracula</i>. In 1921, Mina and Jonathan Harker’s daughter, Abree, a student at King's College, London, starts to question the extraordinary adventures her parents claim to have experienced in England and the Carpathians. Middle-aged Jonathan Harker is haunted by nightmares that Abree assumes to be about her brother, Quincey, killed in the Great War. As the Harkers follow the thread of their unease back to its source, they are haunted by memories of Lucy Westenra, fiancée to Arthur Holmwood, and the manner of Lucy’s death. Having lost her brother, Quincey, in the Great War, Abree refuses to believe in a clear dividing line between good and evil. Abree suspects her parents’ tales of glory hide a profound sense of guilt, particularly about the unexplained death of their friend, Lucy Westenra. The Harkers’ maid, Jenny, it transpires, has reasons of her own to worry about the chaos in her employer’s household and she is suddenly unleashed as a destructive force.</p>
