Eden Faveau is a vampire hunter -- that's what her family has always done. But she's been a bit unhappy lately.

Laurent is a vampire -- a prime of the Manticore tribe. And he's one of the nastiest, most brutal, you-don't-want-to- meet-me-in-a-dark-alley Manticores.

Eden is to meet Sid Wolf, a vampire of the civilized Wolf Clan, to work as a team. They want to get the tribes, especially the Manticores, off the streets. The tribes are selling a new illegal drug that lets vampires go out in the sunlight, but ultimately makes them psychotic.

When Eden shows up for the meeting, she's met by a vampire -- but it's not Sid -- it's Laurent. And he needs her to help him acquire the fortune that was stolen from the Manticores. The fact that she thinks he's Sid should make it easier to use her, make her his, then discard her and move on with his fortune and a life of luxury.

MASTER OF DARKNESS is the next installment from Ms. Sizemore featuring prime vampires of the Clans and Tribes. Wickedly sensual and emotionally satisfying with lots of action, she pulled me into her world once again -- and I loved every minute of it.
