Acquainted with the Night Justine Eyre

Caroline Clifford's bland life as a London tour guide flips upside down when her beloved uncle is brutally murdered at a Bulgarian archaeological site. While traveling to recover his remains, she meets a man who corresponded with her uncle. Jude Barrett is a biochemist on a mission -- to rid the world of vampires... At first, Caro is dismissive of Jude's beliefs, but she can't ignore the signs that are all around her: the human bite marks on her uncle, the men following her, the anguished cries after sundown. Strange anagrams on her uncle's passport lead her and Jude to a cliff-top monastery in Greece, where a shattering revelation connects a relic Caro inherited from her parents to an age-old text on immortality -- and an enigmatic prophecy that pits the forces of darkness and light in a showdown that could destroy them all... "A fantastic read. Smart and sophisticated... A Da Vinci Code-esque adventure with a fresh take on vampirism and an emotional, sexy romance." --Virna DePaul, author of Chosen by Blood "Bulgarian vampires and nonstop sex (not with the Bulgarian vampires), PLUS an illuminated lost manuscript, in a twisty tale of family mystery, murder, and corporate greed." --Diana Gabaldon, New York Times bestselling author of the Outlander series "A singe-your-fingers page-turner. Don't miss this one." --Shirley Hailstock, author of Some Like Them Rich
