Vampire Thirst: Some cravings are older than hunger.

Rate this book
Some cravings are older than hunger.

Crookhaven has always been a rain-beaten village on the edge of the sea—but when every well suddenly runs dry overnight, the residents realise something is terribly wrong. Barrels empty. Livestock collapse without wounds. Fish are found rigid and hollow, as if the sea itself has been drained.

Seventeen-year-old Wren Marlowe discovers her mother unconscious beside a bucket of bloodless catch and begins searching for what could cause such devastation. Her investigation leads her into the forbidden tidal caves carved beneath the cliffs, where she uncovers a stone coffin marked with runes far older than the village itself.

When the coffin cracks open at dusk, a withered figure crawls free—an ancient, pre-Draculian vampire that feeds not on blood, but on moisture. Fog whispers. Storms lose their rain. The horizon begins to pull back as the ocean itself weakens.

Crookhaven is dying by the hour, and the creature grows stronger with every drop it steals.

Wren must confront the forgotten history buried beneath the village and face a predator older than myth before the creature drains the last life-source the sea.

A dark coastal horror novel blending atmospheric suspense, folklore dread, and a wholly new vampire mythology.
