To stop a vampire killer, sheβll have to slay her own demons first. A provocative and savvy vampire, Alexandra Sabian moves to the sleepy hamlet of Jefferson, Mississippiβpopulation 6,000, half vampiresβto escape the demons lurking in her past. As an enforcer for the Federal Bureau of Preternatural Investigations (FBPI), Alex must maintain the uneasy peace between her kind and humans, including Jeffersonβs bigoted sheriff, whoβd be happy to see all vampires banished from town. Then really dead vamps start turning upβbeheaded, crucified, and defanged, the same gruesome manner in which Alexβs father was murdered decades ago. For Alex, the professional has become way too personal. Things get even more complicated when the FBPI sends in some unnervingly sexy backup: Alexβs onetime mentor, lover, and fiancΓ©, Varik Baudelaire. Still stinging from the betrayal that ended their short-lived engagement, Alex is determined not to give in to the temptation that soon threatens to short-circuit her investigation. But as the vamp body count grows and the public panic level rises, Varik may be Alexβs only hope to stop a relentless killer whoβs got his own score to settle and his own bloody past to put right.
