Petre used to be a tough, the meanest bruiser in the Net family crew. Barely past his prime, he can still take most comers, and now drives the family scion everywhere. He knew he'd meet his end between a gun barrel and a shallow grave, until he didn't. Now he's trapped in the bus he used to drive. Never living, never dying, forever at the mercy of rust and neglect. After the death of her mother, Nicoleta's father transplanted them to her native land from sunny California. Can she really find happiness in Romania? The antique bus her dad fixes up for her piques her interest. She's ready to ferry tourists through the mountains of Transylvania to Vlad's castle when a strange voice calls to her. Can a bus be haunted? Together Nicoleta and Petre experience the dark truths lurking behind the story of Frankenstein as they make a deal with the latest Doctor F. Will they survive to love each other? Can living be worse than dying?
