Blood Memories (Vampire Memories)
Eleisha Clevon is a fragile-looking teen with an angelic face. Actually, she is a 200-year-old vampire; her face, a lure for prey. She is also caretaker of the senile vampire William. When police find dead bodies in the home of an old vampire who commits suicide, Eleisha and William, seen in the vicinity, must flee. Seeking refuge in Seattle, Eleisha gets into the hunt for a vampire murderer. Flashbacks to Eleisha’s youth and her development as a vampire salt the search sequences in this mixture of solid action, high-quality characters, and plausible settings that launches the Vampire Memories series. --Frieda Murray
