Wuthering Bites is a delightfully dark mix of vampires and the classic, tragic love story of Cathy and Heathcliff, from Charlotte Bronte’s Wuthering Heights.
Significant parts of this new, twisted story match that of Wuthering Heights, with the simple addition of vampires in the mix. Heathcliff and Cathy’s bond begin when her father brings the orphan home and introduces him as her new brother, though Cathy’s blood brother Hindley is less than pleased. Heathcliff’s gypsy blood is apparent, but there is a much darker secret that he is hiding from his new family: the fact that he is a vampire. After Cathy’s betrayal, Heathcliff disappears to make his fortune and then returns to enact his revenge upon the evil Hindley and his family, all while mourning the death of Cathy, who dies soon after his return. This classic story envelopes the new vampire obsession with surprising ease, and is destined to leave readers with a deeper understanding of the story.
