Night of the Wolves

Heather Graham is one of my favorite authors. She keeps you spellbound until the very end. I have read many of her books and look forward to new ones.

Surprisingly Entertaining

You can't tell from the description that this is a vampire book. I do not like vampire books, so I was prepared to be disappointed. However, this book offered an interesting twist on the vampire theme: vampires in the old west. The 2 main characters, Alex and Cody, are surprisingly real and interesting. I ended up surprising myself and enjoying this book very much. If you don't like vampire books, you might give this one a try - it is not the typical vampire story. If you do like vampire books, you'll probably like this one, too.

refreshing vampire historical romantic fantasy

In 1864 in New Orleans a deadly serial killer shakes up the locals as well as the occupying army. Union officer Lieutenant Aldridge asks for former Confederate soldier Dr. Cody Fox who is sent to investigate as he has previous experience with these types of killings back in Alexandria in 1859 with a decapitating vicious serial killer. His assignment is to solve who is behind the mass murders and prevent more from happening. Alex Green heads west to be with her father, but she arrives in Victory, Texas to learn he is dead although she is unaware how he died as no one will whisper a word of it as if they feared his fate if they say anything. Meanwhile deadly outlaw Milo Roundtree arrives in town as does Cody tracking the culprit who most believe is the vicious criminal. When Milo places a knife at Alex's throat, Cody kills him saving her life. However, nothing is resolved as the mass graves are empty and rumors abound to stay in-doors once the sun goes down. This is a refreshing vampire historical romantic fantasy. The cast is solid especially the lead couple, the townsfolk, and the key second in command of the bloodsuckers who cleverly is hidden in plain sight. The prime weapon against the undead seems much more effective and realistic than the usual stake as Heather Graham provides a fun fast-paced story line as vampires and hunters collide in Civil War Texas.
