Britain is in ruin after the Vampire wars, people are starving and the Nebs use the situation to their advantage.
Spreading their lies that it's Jake & his friends fault, that Vampires & Humans can lively peacefully, George & Alfred Fuad ensure that they get their political party winning.

Jake makes his way to Iraq, making an unlikely alliance along the way, to stop an evil worse than the trinity being awoken.

The ending though...did he, didn't he? and will their be another book....

This was the final part of the Vampire Trinity and for me was the best of the three books. It finished the series off really well but also left just a tiny little cliff-hanger! I'm not giving anything away! I didn't always like the writing style of the first two books (just my personal taste) but Kardinal was good! Would recommend!

What a gripping series! I don't normally dable in the horror realm, but this series was so captivating that I had the library order the rest of the series. Now that it's done, what to read?! Satisfying conclusion, but still a little openended.

Nice ending! It was slow at some points and the multiple perspectives take a while to get used to but i liked it :D

Fantastic end to one of the best vampire series available. Bloody, fast paced and tense.
