(The first book in the Vampire Detective Midnight series)A novel by JC Andrijeski
Nick frowned, staring around at the alley floor.
It hit him again.
There was something wrong with this blood.
It smelled too good.
It smelled way, way too good...
Vampire with a past and homicide detective, Naoko "Nick" Tanaka just got transferred to the NYPD, where he works as a "Midnight," or vampire in the employ of the human police. Like all state-reg'd vamps, he gets his food delivered to his door, lives in government housing, and basically can't sneeze without the U.S. government knowing about it.
More than anything, he just wants to be left alone, to endure his immortality in peace, but he's barely in New York two weeks when things start to go sideways.
It all starts with his new case - - a case involving dead hybrids, graffiti that tells the future, a kid who shouldn't exist at all, and a possible conspiracy involving the richest humans in New York.
That doesn't even get into the school principal, a woman with secrets of her own, who has a deeply unsettling effect on him.
Nick finds he can't get personally uninvolved with any of it. Instead, he gets sucked in even deeper, until he's pretty sure he'll end up forcibly reprogrammed by his human owners - - assuming they don't just rip his heart out of his chest and be done with it.
VAMPIRE DETECTIVE MIDNIGHT is book #1 of a gritty, romantic new series set in a futuristic, dystopian New York populated by vampires, humans and psychics trying to rebuild their world after a devastating race war nearly obliterates the previous one.
A spinoff of the Quentin Black Mystery series, it features vampire with a past and homicide detective, Naoko "Nick" Tanaka, who gets transferred to the NYPD after a bad incident in Los Angeles forces him to start a new life. Nick works as a "Midnight," or vampire in the employ of the human police department, but when he arrives in New York, he really just wants to be left alone to work, surf, and deal with his immortality in peace.
Life, and the residents of New York, clearly have other ideas.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
