Book description
Magiere, half-human child of a vampire, and Leesil her half-elf partner
are investigating the sinister murder of a Councilman's daughter in a
nearby town. Only her damaged town's desperate need for money could have
pressured Magiere to return to the twilight world of crime that she used
to inhabit. But this murder is not all it seems, and has all the
hallmarks of something much darker, more complicated, more calculating.
It seems that someone was trying to send a message, but was it a vampire
or an even more dread force? Only Leesil can persuade Magiere to follow
her destiny and the call of her blood, before more are claimed by
darkness ... Barb and J. C. Hendee live just outside Boulder,
Colorado, close to the Rocky Mountains. He teaches English at the
Metropolitan State College of Denver, and she teaches at the University
of Colorado at Denver.
