“...An interesting alternate history...Masello creatively reimagines the inspiration for Dracula with thrills, frights, and a splendid final confrontation aboard the Titanic.” —Publishers Weekly

“Mysterious and thrilling, Masello’s latest novel (after The Jekyll Revelation, 2016) is another example of wonderful historical fiction. Fans of his previous horror-thriller hybrids will recognize Masello’s vivid storytelling and his way of truly immersing readers into the worlds he creates; fans of ancient Egyptian mythology will especially enjoy the story.” —Booklist

“Told in short, punchy chapters...The Night Crossing vividly describes the Victorian London in which Egyptomania reigned...Masello has woven such an enjoyable, at times downright scary, tale...” —Historical Novel Society

“It’s nice to see that well-written, literary horror/suspense novels are still alive and well.” —Criminal Element

“Robert Masello’s The Night Crossing not only did justice to the memory of Bram Stoker but is a much needed reminder of the majesty of the world of vampires and witches...Historical fictions aren’t easy to write, considering the material is not solely imaginary, but the way Masello breathes an unique premise into this narrative like a necessary and delicate bonding, makes it enjoyable and believable.” —Geekly Inc

“...This book is exactly how I like my Victorian horror: foggy, grim, and with lots of cameos by the famous and soon to be famous.” —Forever Young Adult

“The Night Crossing mixes history with the supernatural and historical figures with fictional characters. The Night Crossing successfully blends fact with fantasy for an unsettling tale of mysterious creatures and disturbing personages.” —San Francisco Book Review
