"Well-researched... the intense first-person narration has enough twists and turns to keep forensics fans turning the pages."

--Publishers Weekly

For some, beliefs are enough to kill for - again and again and again....

A young woman's body is found with puncture marks on her neck and soon the delicious word vampire is on everyone's lips. All of FBI profiler Sophie Anderson's skills-psychic and psychological-will be needed for her to determine whether this was a thrill-kill or something even more sinister.

Exploring the blood bars and Goth clubs of LA, Sophie immerses herself in the seductive culture of self-styled vampires. Posing as the alluring Lady Veronica and infiltrating a notorious clan, Sophie will learn just how deep the fantasy goes for some believers.

When life requires death, nothing is sacred.
