But there is no safety in the ancient city, for the threat of conflict is in the wind ...with unholy alliances and earth-shattering betrayals taking hideous form in the shadows.

By day, Jocelynn Drake is a clean-cut financial analyst writer, but in her free time she writes about a dark underworld where vampires rule. The author of Nightwalker, she lives in Kentucky.

"An unflinchingly self-assured first novel, chiseled with subtlety and irony into a darkly suspenseful and blessedly surprising story. In exacting detail, and with prose as silky and enticing as her protagonist, Drake has composed a love letter to the vampire genre. I wish I'd written it." -- Vicki Pettersson "An intoxicating mix of jet-setting action and sparkling turns of phrase that let me taste the Nile and feel the British fog. NIGHTWALKER is a must-read addition to the urban fantasy genre, filled both with action and satisfying characters." -- Kim Harrison, New York Times bestselling author of For a Few Demons More "NIGHTWALKER is an action-packed, stellar debut. Jocelynn Drake will have you coming back for more." -- Jeaniene Frost, New York Times bestselling author of Halfway to the Grave
