  London is doomed and Scotland may be their only chance for survival. 
  If the vines and the Creeps didn’t bring about London’s ultimate destruction, Operation Inferno would. Within six days, thermo baric bombs will be dropping on the city, obliterating everything. Adam Blake has no choice but to lead the inhabitants of the Block out of the city and through a hostile world devoid of human life. Their only chance of safety lays over five hundred miles away in the cold wilds of Scotland. 
  As they put distance between them and the impeding bombing, Adam fears failure the most. With his past experience and losses weighing him down, he struggles with the ability to get this motley crew to safety. It’s a long and dangerous road leading north – Hell’s Road – with his new family and what’s left of the survivors he’s grown to know. Stakes are high in his newfound apocalyptic life. 
  Can they get far enough away from the blast zone? Will they be able to stand on their own against the vines, Creeps, and whatever else they might face on Hell’s Road?

  This story, by the famous author of Dracula, is about vampires and evil incarnate.  The story opens showing a young man finding a young woman he knows behind bars, having been imprisoned and raped. He swears to get her out and the scene cuts to six months earlier. The young man is Bram Stoker and he has a relationship with Admiral Murray's daughter, Elizabeth in Victorian England. He works in a real estate company and has just given his career a boost by finding a home for the firm's new client, Count Dracula. The Admiral is not impressed with Bram and insists he and Elizabeth observe a year's separation to test their love before he'll give his blessing to their marriage. Bram accepts and leaves to begin his year but Elizabeth is rebellious and runs off, presumably to find Bram in Scotland. She gets waylaid by the Count at the train station where he abducts her to his home in Transylvania. Bram's friend Malcolm rushes to find Bram and tell him about the abduction but is caught and killed by Dracula at Stoker's apartment. He had told his business to Mrs. Withen the landlady, before he died so Bram was able to get the information he needed and rushed off to her rescue. He is accosted twice on the road to the Slovak region, once in France and the second time in Germany on Walpurgisnacht. Meanwhile, the Admiral is also on his way to rescue his daughter. We come again to the scene where Bram finds Elizabeth imprisoned in her underground chamber and he then begins a death-defying climb up the side of the mountain to where he can enter the castle. He challenges the Count to a fight in which he is clearly outmatched and when the Count abandons him the Admiral catches up to Bram in the mausoleum. He sends the young man on to find his daughter, while he searches for Dracula. The two older men meet up in front of the dungeon grating shortly after Bram finds Elizabeth and fight. The Admiral wins in spite of taunting by the Count and the scene fades out.
