It is 1945.

The prisoners are in terrible despair, almost praying for death to release them from their misery. Only Colonel Lambert, the senior officer of the camp, and Van Elst, a former rubber planter, know that the war is over. Lambert is caught in an appalling dilemma for he knows too that every prisoner will be slaughtered immediately if Colonel Yamamitsu, the gross, brutal commandant of the camp, learns of the Japanese defeat...

The Vampire Lovers by J. Sheridan le Fanu
Published by Fontana Books in 1971
I awoke with a scream and felt a stinging pain as if two needles darted into my breast. By the light of the candle I saw a familiar figure standing at the foot of the bed. As I stared at it, the figure appeared to have moved nearer the door. Then the door opened, and it passed out.
My first thought was that Carmilla had been playing me a trick and that I had forgotten to secure my door but I found it locked as usual on the inside.
The next day, Carmilla seemed more devoted to me than ever...
