Product Description

When club-hopping bad girl Tiara Kent is found dead in her plush Manhattan apartment, the killing has all the earmarks of a vampire attack. The ever-practical Lieutenant Eve Dallas has to deal with superstitious cops carrying garlic and stakes, as well as the ever-hysterical press. None of the wealthy young victim’s friends seem to know much about the Dark Prince she has been secretly seeing. The chase to stop him before he kills again will lead Eve and her team into areas of the city that not even the most intrepid cop wants to visit, and into the very heart of darkness.

From AudioFile
The futuristic New York Police and Security Department is called in to investigate the exsanguination death of paparazzi favorite Tiara Kent. Homicide Detective Delia Peabody suspects the murder may have been committed by a vampire, but her partner, Lieutenant Eve Dallas, thinks itÕs the work of a cold-blooded killer. Susan Ericksen has performed nearly thirty stories in RobbÕs popular In Death romantic suspense series. Ericksen has created an eclectic cast of more than a dozen recurring audio personalities that both she and listeners have come to know well. This novella is too short for Ericksen to pull out her entire repertoire, but she delights her audience with a tight performance, including a campy ersatz vampire--complete with the requisite rolling ÒrÓ accent--just for fun.

Customer Reviews

Story appeared originally in Dead of Night
I was confused when I saw this audio book, as they usually come out after the print version, and I didn't have this one (I thought) on my shelf. I started to read the plot and realized I HAVE read this before, somewhere. It was a short story in an anthology called Dead of Night, with a bunch of other authors and their stories. I liked it, but unless you are really into audio books, just buy the printed stuff at the grocery store--Lots Cheaper!

Her struggles to find and subdue the unusual perp lend to a riveting mystery perfect for any collection
Veteran audio narrator Susan Ericksen lends a smooth and dramatic voice to this mystery involving a futuristic lieutenant who is on a collision course with a criminal vampire. Her struggles to find and subdue the unusual perp lend to a riveting mystery perfect for any collection strong in audio mysteries or vampire stories in general; especially for those seeking something different.

Excellent plot
Great plot, good characters, lives up to the usual JD Robb excellence. Audio was well-read and performer was excellent. Good for road trips.
