From Doug Dandridge, the author of the bestselling Exodus: Empires at War series, comes a different take on the vampire tale.


Lucinda Taylor had a perfect life. Wife, student, living in a beautiful house in the suburbs. Her abusive husband beat her one night and threw her out of the house. Terrified, out on the street, prostituting herself to feed her hunger for drugs, she is taken and turned by a master Vampire. When the master is destroyed she becomes a free agent, and decides that she is not going to operate as a generator of the vampire plague. Instead, she becomes an undead avenger, bringing the terror of justice and judgment to the people who tormented her in life, then ensuring that they don't rise again.

Lucinda makes many powerful enemies. The Church, the police, the other vampires that fear her actions will out them to a public that has the power to destroy them if they become known. Lucinda must battle those who pursue her and her own hunger for blood, while taking down the criminal element of Tampa. And redeeming her own soul in the process.

Horror/Urban Fantasy in the tradition of Bram Stoker's Dracula and Stephen King's Salem's Lot. Warning: Strong language, extreme violence and sexual situations.
