Welcome to Hawthorne Manor, a fifteen-and-a-half-star hotel with a difference – it’s run by vampires!

But nine-year-old Moth is only a half-vampire (that’s what happens if you get bitten by a vamp with only one fang), meaning he can’t fly and hates the sight of blood. He can come out in sunlight, though, which means it’s his job as Temporary Deputy Assistant Sub-Manager to run the hotel all day, while the rest of the staff snooze in the dark, creepy basement.

Bullied by the other vampires, particularly cocky Vlad the Lad, who loves to make his life a misery, Moth’s life sucks. That is until a party of school children unexpectedly check in, and Moth is faced with a new challenge: a feisty (human) girl called Mina.

Can Moth protect Mina from the vamps without revealing the truth about himself and the hotel? Or can humans and half-vampires never truly be friends?

About Dotty Sutton

Dotty Sutton is an Edinburgh-based illustrator and model maker. The dictionary definition of ‘dotty’ is ‘eccentric or slightly mad’, which is a description she is rather flattered by.

Dotty has illustrated books including Waterstones Children’s Book of the Month Alex vs Axel by Sam Copeland and The Notwitches by Gary Panton.

When not drawing, she’s building tiny worlds and puppets out of paper and clay, or inspiring the next generation of adventurers as a Cub Scout leader.

She’s currently working on her first author-illustrated book, and is excited to finally let the characters living in her brain escape out onto the page and into the world!
