I love the way this author draws you into her imaginary worlds.  A remote truck stop seemed like the most unlikely setting for a vampire story to me, but it couldn't have worked better!  All the action (and there is certainly plenty of it!) is condensed into just a couple of settings which not only makes them incredibly visual, but also helps you to focus on the story and the characters.The characters really came alive for me and I felt a strong empathy with them throughout their unbelievable struggles.  But the Vampire King's family were as awesome as they were merciless!  Then just when I thought things couldn't get any worse for the humans, the Vampire Queen's offspring showed up.From beginning to end this was a totally gripping story; really well-plotted and with such powerful realism that you just can't forget it in a hurry.  The ending was a total masterpiece that literally made shivers creep up and down my spine.  But it leaves the story wide open for the sequel which I wanted to start immediately.An awesome story and very well written - highly recommended.
