Mark Valiente is a cop for Los Angeles and a vampire. He
and his partner Brodie, who is also an Other, Elven to be
exact, are on a stake out after having received an
anonymous tip of strange activity at the Hildegard Tomb.
They go in and "rescue" Alessande Salisbrooke who is about
to become a sacrifice to bring back to life the shape-
shifting magician Sebastian Hildegard. They had no way of
knowing that they had rescued a future KEEPER OF THE DAWN.
Alessande is furious. She had everything under control. She
did. She would have easily transported before they had a
chance to do her in. She had been there by accident but
found it the perfect opportunity to find out what happened
to the friend she fears is now in the hands of this cult.
It was bad enough to have been "rescued" by the cops but
one of them had to be a vampire. She doesn't have much good
to say about vamps, but this one is really gorgeous. Then
she had a dream or vision and ...wow ... now she finds
herself
really thinking differently about this irritating vampire.
KEEPER OF THE DAWN is another incredible offering by author
Heather Graham. The action starts with page one and goes on
as you find yourself planning the investigation right along
with the combatants soon to be lovers and their friends.
The friends are "Keepers" and there is of course a ghost
who watches over all of them. You really do feel a part of
this adventure and you find yourself being knocked a number
of different directions with each step as the Keepers try
to rescue someone they believe will be a part of the
sacrifice for the cult they are trying to stop. There is
not a lot of overt romance but it is fun to watch the
couple dance around one another. KEEPER OF THE DAWN is
another winner for
Ms. Graham and I am already looking forward to the next one.
In their new Keeper roles, these extraordinary women must
balance the fate of the world with their desires....
Alessande Salisbrooke has been warned about the legend of
the old Hildegard Tomb-how human sacrifices are being
carried out by the followers of a shape-shifting magician.
As a Keeper, Alessande understands the risks of
investigating, but she can't shake the nagging feeling that
the killings are tied to a friend's recent murder, and she
can't turn her back.
With the help of Mark Valiente, a dangerously sexy vampire
cop, Alessande narrowly escapes becoming a sacrifice
herself. But as the bodies continue piling up, completely
drained of blood, one truth becomes all too clear: life is
an illusion, and no one-not even those you care about the
most-is who they seem.
