Publisher's Synopsis
Walk on the Dark Side...
After centuries of denying his true nature, vampire Michael Ward has surrendered to his darkest impulses. Once a man driven by peace, he now prowls the Santa Cruz Boardwalk -- a ravenous predator consumed by feral rage and an insatiable lust for blood. His victims are left mutilated, their bodies twisted into grotesque displays that are turning the boardwalk into a gallery of horror.
Determined to join the ranks of legendary slayers, Cade Colter joins forces with famed vampire hunter Father Vincent Scarlotti, who's compelled by an obsession to eradicate evil wherever it lurks. Together, they descend into the city's criminal underbelly where every vice is catered, every virtue auctioned, and every soul is for sale. Deep in the labyrinths of depravity, prostitution, and decay, they follow the string of ravaged bodies that mark Michael's murderous path -- and with each grisly new discovery, Cade begins to understand that to defeat this monster, he may have to become one himself.
"I couldn't put this book down. It's got more hooks than a day boat out of San Pedro Harbor!" - QL Pearce, bestselling author of Scary Stories for Sleep-Overs
