Grave Illusions

"This novel has all the earmarks of an excellent vampire romance . . ." --RT Book Reviews

" . . . a fabulous vampire suspense tale." —Paranormal Romance Reviews

Jess Vandermire, Vampire Hunter . . .

Tough vampire cop, Jess Vandermire, fights against her unholy brethren in New York City to protect the two men she loves more than life itself. But Jess is waging a personal war, too—to save the tiny shred of soul she has left. If she loses, so does the city . . .

New York City is in the grasp of a deadly, unseen enemy. But Lieutenant Jess Vandermire, New York City police officer, is uniquely specialized to recognize and fight this threat. It's her job to forge a black ops team--a team that is tough and, if need be, expendable. Jess understands what she's fighting and what's at stake. For her, it's all about retribution. . . until she recruits ex-cop John Brittain . . .

Suddenly, her priorities aren't quite so easily definable. John Brittain has a chip on his shoulder and is as strong as they come. But is he ready for the whole truth? That combating "super" vampires whose primal need for blood and the addictive drug "Sunshine" is only the beginning of their problems?

Because Jess has a secret. And when John finds out, will he stay and fight with her? Or will he realize that she's the enemy, too?

Lina Gardiner, award-winning author of the Jess Vandermire, Vampire Hunter Series, has writing in her blood. Her books have been well received by such reviewers as Kirkus Reviews and USA Today's HEA blog, including a 4.5-star rating from RT Book Reviews and a nomination for a Romantic Times Reader's Choice Award. On the home front, Lina lives in New Brunswick, Canada, a hot spot for legendary ghosts, tall tales and odd happenings, which probably add to her love of a good mystery. The spooky stories her grandfather told his grandchildren in the "parlor" when their grandmother wasn't paying attention didn't hurt either . . .
