Subtle Secrets
Their survival depends on each other.
An unexpected plague brought down the entire world, leaving its inhabitants to founder in its wake. A quarter of the world's population became vampires. Another quarter became the Falgori, grotesque hungry beings that feed on humans and vampires alike. Humans scramble to survive, unwilling to become food for the creatures that now exist amongst them.
It's survival of the fittest, a lesson Abbessé Franklin has done her best to learn. Her transformation into a vampire hasn't been easy, though she's done her best come to terms with the change. The Falgori wiped out her entire family, something she will not forgive.
She promises to make the world a better place by destroying each and one she comes across. Until the moment she comes across Sam Connolly. Long believing that Sam had died, his presence shakes the very foundations of her own existence. He's a stark reminder of what her life was once like.
If they're to succeed in overcoming the aftermath of the plague, they'll need to trust in one another every step of the way. Walking into the abyss won't be easy, but it's a chance Abbessé is willing take. The Falgori must be culled before they wipe out what's left of the world's population.

Really enjoyed this short dystopian book. A strange plague turns mankind into vampires or falgori a mutated dog like thing, their are not many humans left. This story is about a vampire named Abbey that is known far and wide as the killer of falgoris. One night sitting on a roof she sees Sam her one true love since childhood, and whom she saw fall to a falgoris poisonous bite standing before her after ten long years. It puts her in a tailspin to say the least. They both are being hunted by both vampires, and falgori, setting them both on the run. They are endlessly hounded by them, never stopping for long before they are found and have to run again. While on the run they both are surprised to find out that they both have been tracking the origins of the plague.
Book was exciting, full of action and has me wanting to read more.
