A tale of seduction, power... and blood The ballerina Violette Lenoir has fallen victim to the bite of the vampire Charlotte. Her fire and energy have fuelled a terrifying change and a dreadful realisation; that Violette has become Lilith, the demon mother of all vampires. Haunted both by what she has done and by Violette's dark sensuality, Charlotte and her immortal lover Karl are drawn towards the dancer and the terrible destiny that has fallen on her shoulders. But other, far more dangerous shadows are gathering around Violette. She poses a threat to the vampire Sebastian and the heirs of Kristian, and their plans to bring all of mankind under their dark wings... Praise for A Dance in Blood Velvet “An extremely well plotted tale of complex, believable characters... Freda Warrington's prose is simply stunning, sumptuous and graceful and as seductive as the vampires she portrays.” - Starburst “No finer vampire novel has been published in any century... The true queen of the vampire novel.”- Black Tears Magazine
