Dark Blood

For two hundred years, Roger Neimann has never had to know the end that mortals face. But eternal existence comes with a price he cannot accept . . . consuming human blood. Hiding in New Orleans under an assumed identity, he desperately searches for a cure for his vampirism.

AN INSATIABLE HUNGER

Stalking the streets of New Orleans, a vicious serial killer dubbed "The Ripper" leaves his victims drained of blood. For Houston physician Matthew Carter, it is an all-too-familiar pattern-one that sends him racing to find Neimann. But he is not alone in his hunt.

A RAGING THIRST

There are those intent on using the powers of the vampire for their own evil ends. A vampire sick with disease and driven into a crazed killing frenzy that will not stop until he has taken everyone he can . . . including the woman Matt loves.
