1878: The Lyceum Theatre, London. Three extraordinary people begin their life together, a life that will be full of drama, transformation, passionate and painful devotion to art and to one another. Henry Irving, the Chief, is the volcanic leading man and impresario; Ellen Terry is the most lauded and desired actress of her generation, outspoken and generous of heart; and ever following along behind them in the shadows is the unremarkable theatre manager, Bram Stoker. Fresh from life in Dublin as a clerk, Bram may seem the least colourful of the trio but he is wrestling with dark demons in a new city, in a new marriage, and with his own literary aspirations. As he walks the London streets at night, streets haunted by the Ripper and the gossip which swirls around his friend Oscar Wilde, he finds new inspiration. But the Chief is determined that nothing will get in the way of his manager's devotion to the Lyceum and to himself. And both men are enchanted by the beauty and boldness of the elusive Ellen. This exceptional novel explores the complexities of love that stands dangerously outside social convention, the restlessness of creativity, and the experiences that led to Dracula, the most iconic supernatural tale of all time.

La venta como profesión se ve cada vez más sometida a presiones desde diversos ángulos: por una parte, está el modelo tradicional que los autores denominan el Viejo Bazar, en el que la venta se considera una manipulacion, el vendedor no es muy apreciado y el comprador tiende a refugiarse en una actitud de cautela y desconfianza, como refleja el lema Cuidado, comprador. Por otra parte, cada vez cobra mayor importancia el Bazar Electronico, donde la relacion entre cliente y producto depende mas de la tecnologia, ya sea la television o las redes informaticas como Internet, que de la actividad de un vendedor; aqui el lema es Cuidado, vendedor. Para sobrevivir en estas circunstancias, la venta ha empezado a evolucionar hacia un modelo distinto: el Nuevo Bazar. El Nuevo Bazar es una cultura de la venta dominada por la relacion, la integridad y la influencia -no la manipulacion- con miras a alcanzar un resultado beneficioso para ambas partes.
