Publisher's Synopsis
Vampire folklore gets rebuilt from the ground up in this darkly funny romantic horror thriller.
Sara, a five hundred year old vampire, works as a therapist in New York, as well as overseeing her Lock, a peaceful group of vampire women, in a compound on the Upper West Side. After a ghastly accident sends Sara's bloodlust spiraling dangerously out of control, she is barely able to contain her increased addiction to human blood. Out of desperation, Sara begins to wonder if ending her life is her only option. In the midst of her crisis, Sara falls for Silas, a blunt, funny patient with a nihilistic worldview. Her life feels like it is righting itself, until a brutal murder sends shockwaves through the tight-knit vampire community, and Sara realizes that the life she has protected for so long is built on a foundation of deception and lies, and nobody is what they seem. Kevin Dickson is the author of the LA Times Bestseller Blind Item and its sequel, Guilty Pleasure.
