Growing Up Vampire

The copy editor is almost done, and the editors and I are trying to agree on a title for the third installment of The Darkness and the Night series.  While we're waiting, I thought I might give you an idea of what is to come.  Unlike the first two books, I broke this one into four parts, each covering a developmental milestone for the twins:

Part I: Vampire.  Mommy.

Karen's past returns to haunt her as Billy's nomadic family returns to the old Victorian, set on kidnapping the infant twins.

Part II: The Innocent One

The full extent of gradeschool-aged Anna's Astral abilities shine through in dark and horrifying ways, as Karen's vampire-hunting father tracks them down in surburbia, intent on killing all of them.

Part III: A Family Affair

Desperate to know more about her natural father, adolescent Anna uses her Astral abilities to pull an alternate version of Billy into reality.  His presence proves bittersweet for Karen, who has committed herself to doner and lover, Jason.

Part IV: The Awakening

Anna's twin, Andy, begins to undergo an unexpected transformation, while commune bounty hunters track down Karen and Jason.  Anna, with her goddess-like Astral abilites, is their only hope . . . but her aid does not come without a sacrifice.


Cross your fingers with me that the release will come sooner than later.  While you're waiting, make sure you've read Books I and II.  Each book stands alone, but I've included a couple of delightful twists and inside occurrences spanning throughout the series, which make for a richer experience when read in order.
