Publisher's Summary
Christopher Buehlman excels in twisting the familiar into newfound dread
in his genre-bending novels. Now the acclaimed author of Those Across
the River delivers his most disquieting tale yet.
The secret is, vampires are real and I am one. The secret is, I'm stealing
from you what is most truly yours and I'm not sorry...
New York City in 1978 is a dirty, dangerous place to live - and die.
Joey Peacock knows this as well as anybody - he has spent the last 40
years as an adolescent vampire, perfecting the routine he now enjoys:
womanizing in punk clubs and discotheques, feeding by night, and sleeping
by day with others of his kind in the macabre labyrinth under the city's
sidewalks.
The subways are his playground and his highway, shuttling him throughout
Manhattan to bleed the unsuspecting in the Sheep Meadow of Central Park
or in the backseats of Checker cabs, or even those in their own apartments
who are too hypnotized by sitcoms to notice him opening their windows.
It's almost too easy.
Until one night he sees them hunting on his beloved subway. The children
with the merry eyes. Vampires, like him... or not like him. Whatever
they are, whatever their appearance means, the undead in the tunnels
of Manhattan are not as safe as they once were.
And neither are the rest of us.
What the Critics Say
"As much F. Scott Fitzgerald as Dean Koontz." (New York Times best-selling
author Patricia Briggs)
