Barnabas, Quentin and Quentin's Demon

This story takes place in 1895 with a woman named Lara Balfour coming to Collinwood. She and Quentin had been exchanging letters due to Quentin's interest in a waltz her father wrote. She arrives and finds out right away that a letter had (supposedly) been sent asking her to cancel her visit.

It's not long before she learns of Quentin being ill, a woman named Catherine who seems to hate her and a mad woman named Erica who is a witch, all three of them living in the Collinwood mansion.

There's also Quentin's brother who raises ultra-nasty, huge dogs.

Quentin's wife is dead, mauled by a savage animal some time previously.

Lara meets (and of course falls for) Barnabas. A werewolf-like creature threatens Lara and gradually it seems that Quentin may be responsible for at least two deaths. There's also one other player on the scene, a guy who seems to know a lot about the Collins family.

She works with Barnabas and the Pinkerton detective to try and catch Quentin in the act. Or, perhaps, it's someone else?
