    It began with blood and death. And Vicki Nelson, PI was at the scene. The victim had been brutally, inhumanly opened up. Messy work. She'd had to cover the corpse with her coat. It had sort of made her feel involved. Now Vicki is caught up in the deadly pursuit of a mass murderer with an inhuman appetite for mayhem and destruction. And her advisor on the case is doing nothing to dampen her growing sense of foreboding. But then, with a being of unspeakable evil stalking the city, only Vicki Nelson would ally herself to Henry Fitzroy, the illegitimate child of Henry VIII and a five-hundred-year-old vampire.

Ma ora qualcuno ha scoperto il loro segreto e dà loro la caccia. Solo Henry Fitzroy può aiutarli, ed Henry interviene insieme a Vicki Nelson, investigatrice privata.

    Per Henry Fitzroy, vampiro con 450 anni di esistenza alle spalle, tutto ha inizio con una tormentosa immagine del sole a cui non riesce a sfuggire, che per uno come lui costituisce un terrificante simbolo di morte. Temendo per la propria sanità mentale, Henry si rivolge all'ex poliziotta e investigatrice privata Vicki Nelson, sua compagna di indagini sovrannaturali e, a volte, anche amante, per chiedere aiuto. E mentre i due lottano per far fronte a quella strana ossessione di Henry, il più intimo amico di Vicki e suo ex partner, il detective Mike Cellucci, si trova a indagare su due misteriose morti verificatesi al Museo Egizio, certo di essere di fronte a degli assassinii e non a incidenti... e altrettanto convinto che il colpevole sia una mummia tornata in vita!

But what begins as a personal tragedy turns into the most terrifying case of Vicki’s career, when her mother’s body disappears mysteriously from the funeral home.

    A ghost has invaded his home, beginning a dangerous nightly game in which Henry is allowed to ask a single question. If the answer is no, an innocent and unsuspecting person is killed. Henry soon comes to the horrifying realization that this wraith—and the others who join it—is using him to wreak vengeance on the people it holds responsible for its death. Henry can’t find the source of these murders on his own, so he calls on the one person he trusts to help—private investigator Vicki Nelson, with the small hope that they can stop these otherworldly forces, without losing their lives. Also includes a brand-new short story featuring Vicki and Henry!

  6. Napsat Dluh krve nebylo mým původním záměrem, protože jsem považovala příběh za uzavřený s koncem Spojení krve. Po čase jsem však cítila potřebu prozkoumat Vickiin nový život a změny ve jejím světě. Velkým rozdílem bylo, že Henry se usadil ve Vancouveru, což znamenalo, že Vicki a Mike museli za ním. Tato změna je zbavila vnitřního spojence, a v případě potíží byli odkázáni sami na sebe, přičemž většinu problémů si způsobili sami. Krevní pouta se zaměřují na vztahy mezi hlavními protagonisty a metafyzické záhady, a protože jsem v Dluhu krve vyřešila jejich vztahy, neplánuji další knihy o Vicki Nelsonové, kromě sbírky povídek nazvané Krevní banka. V této sbírce se opět objevují soukromá detektivka Vicky Nelsonová, detektiv Celluci a upír Henry Fitzroy, levoboček anglického krále Henryho VIII. Povídky doplňují příběhy z předchozích knih a zkoumají nástrahy důvěrných vztahů mezi lidmi a upíry, stejně jako jejich společný boj s temnými přízraky a démony. I upíři mohou stát na straně světla a spravedlnosti.
