Twenty years have passed since Stefan Salvatore last saw his brother, Damon. Now living in a remote town in England, far away from the haunting memories of Mystic Falls, Stefan is finally able to start over. But when news from London reaches Stefan of a brutal killer on the loose—who goes by Jack the Ripper—Stefan suspects that the murders are the work of a vampire…his brother.

Full of dark shadows and surprising twists, the fourth book in the New York Times bestselling Stefan’s Diaries series raises the stakes for the Salvatore brothers as they face new loves, old treacheries, and unimaginable threats.

But is Damon the only monster stalking the fog-drenched streets of Victorian London?

• A Supernatural Jack the Ripper: Stefan Salvatore suspects the infamous Whitechapel murders are not the work of a man, but of a vampire—and he fears that vampire is his own brother, Damon.
• A Dangerous Brotherhood: Explore the dark and complex history between the Salvatore brothers, as old betrayals and a thirst for power threaten to tear them apart forever.
• Haunted by the Past: Twenty years after the tragic events in Mystic Falls, Stefan has built a new life in England. But when Damon resurfaces, he learns that some memories can never be escaped.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Haunted by the past . . .

The year is 1888, and the scent of blood lingers heavy in the London air. Stefan Salvatore thought he could escape his violent origins by settling in the peaceful countryside of England, but when a heinous murderer named Jack the Ripper surfaces, Stefan fears darkness will always follow him. Drawn into the investigation, Stefan assumes the worst: This is the work of a vampire. And the more he learns, the more he becomes convinced that the killer is someone close to him—and that he can never outrun his past.

Based on the popular CW TV show inspired by the bestselling novels, Stefan’s Diaries reveals the truth about what really happened between Stefan, Damon, and Katherine—and how the Vampire Diaries love triangle began.
