Author: Charlie Huston
Premise:
Joe Pitt is a vampire and sort of a detective. He gets hired to find a missing daughter of a wealthy couple who own a biotech firm. Then there also a new infection spreading which turns people into "shamblers" or mindless walking zombies. Surely the two things can't be related
My Take:
The novel contains large elements of pulpy detective fiction and horror. Plus it's hard to like the main character as he gets involved in a complex mystery while playing several different sides. The author sets up a believable world where vampires live amoung humans, but under the radar of most, and broken off into several groups with distinct agendas and beliefs. This is definitely a series that I will continue to read and author that I have put on the shelf for far too long
