This is not your mothers Paris, or the one your grandfather marched into with the Allies in WWII. Oh no! This is the near future and Paris is not burning but it is sliding into chaos. The vampires are no longer hiding in shadows they are out. No one is safe anymore. But the government has mobilized. A new vaccine which keeps the blood undesirable, a new force "The Hunters" to root out and kill vampires, Paris should be on its way to being the beautiful city it once was, shouldn't it? Or is all lost? Is the city of lights to become just a shadow of its former self, leaving its glory along with its soul to those who would kill the humans without a thought?Or will love somehow bring redemption?Beautifully written this is one of the best vampire short stories you will read. But don't expect any sparkle, glow or romantic hero's. These are the real vampires of lore, they don't spend time enticing, they just go for the jugular.Karen Bryant Doering,Parents' Little Black BookMistBlueEeyore@gmail.com
