NEW JOBS CAN SUCK …

Today is Liz Adams first day on the job as an agent of the Center for Specter Control - Established by Theodore Roosevelt in 1890 its clandestine mission is to protect the world from the stuff of myths and legends … or, at the very least, cheesy movies. - To say that she has a few questions would be an understatement. However, before Liz can be fully briefed by her new partner, Craig Wright, alarm bells sound indicating that the perimeter of RES-SITE-ALPHA has been breached. Not an escape. An incursion.
How did anyone find the secret vampire reservation and why would they break in? Answers will have to wait. First, nine unsuspecting humans must be saved from being the guests of honor at a feast for the inhabitants of Vamp Town. Perhaps by her second day, Liz will have a better understanding of what she has gotten herself into … if she survives the night.

For 126 years vampires and humans have not mixed … until now. Passengers off a broken-down bus have stumbled into the reservation, known by its guardians at the Center for Specter Control (a secret government agency) as Vamp Town, and agent Craig Wright with his newly minted partner, Liz Adams, have to retrieve them.
But they may have a larger problem. Alexei’s malcontent brother Vladimir has had his first taste of sweet, fresh blood in over a century. The renewed strength he feels coursing through his veins has emboldened him to challenge his brother’s leadership and escape the confines of his perceived prison returning to an unsuspecting world in which vampires are merely fantasy characters that populate horror movies, fantasy books, and folkloric tales. To combat this renewed threat to humanity Craig and Liz may have to listen to yet another outrageous proposal from Alexei …
