Son of Blood

By Craig Jones and David M.F. Powers

Book Overview

A small town with dark secrets. A boy caught between two worlds.

Christian lives hidden on an island off the coast of Skerries, Ireland-homeschooled, isolated, and bound by rules he doesn't fully understand. His father, Martin, is a powerful vampire tasked with protecting the town's ancient secret. Christian, however, is something different... something in between.

When a chance encounter with a girl named Sinead draws him into the orbit of his peers, Christian longs for normal life. But beneath Skerries' picturesque surface lies a web of control, corruption, and centuries-old pacts-where loyalty is enforced, outsiders disappear, and nothing is what it seems.

As Christian's powers grow, so does his curiosity-and his danger. Because in a town that protects its peace at any cost, becoming your true self might just get you killed.

Son of Blood is the thrilling first entry in the Secrets of Skerries series: a YA paranormal tale of identity, forbidden love, and the hunger for truth in a world ruled by shadows.
