Thirteen years is a long time to be afraid. It’s a long time to starve yourself. And it’s a long time to go without answers.

Thirteen years ago, Tasha was turned to become an Emophage Vampire. It was that— or die from the hole through her heart. She got some satisfaction from knowing she blew the head off her would-be assassin, but still…
Now Tasha feeds on the emotions of others, stealing what she needs to survive, and forever in fear that she will lose control and drain someone to death. And that would cost Tasha her soul.
When she almost takes a life—two lives—Tasha travels to London to find an old mentor, the woman who turned her. She hopes her friend has an answer, something that will save her from forfeiting her soul. But when she finds her friend, she also finds that her old enemy is alive and killing on the streets of London.
Tasha gets tangled up with the local police as she tried to track down and destroy the monster. She looks for answers in a very different world beneath the streets of London, and crosses wits with the strongest coven in Britain.

But the beast keeps killing, and when nobody has any answers, Tasha must put her new friends in danger to stop the murders.

About the author

Robin Marr

My family is from Scotland, along the coast to the east of Edinburgh not far from Prestonpans, East Lothian. It’s a quiet place, a fishing town, but we have a claim to fame. Back in 1745, Bonnie Prince Charlie had a set-to with a rag-tag army of George II’s Redcoats and, as you could say, kicked their arse.
These days I live in Lincolnshire, with my partner and two dragons currently disguising themselves as cats – something to do with worship and pampering being far more enjoyable than all that pillaging.
I’ve no impressive credentials to validate my writing, other than the years, decades, I spent reading across anything to do with fantasy, science fiction, paranormal, and just about everything that wasn’t part of the mundane world.

And, for not at least, I’ve settled on Urban Fantasy as my writing ‘home’. I hope you get as much pleasure out of reading them as I did when I could finally close each file and say ‘thank heavens that’s finished’. :)

So worth the read

Again Robin Marr smashes it out of the park and lived this book giving us Tasha's origin story and what she was up to away from Jane.

Now looking forward to seeing how Tasha is going to make it up to her and if Jane will forgive her.
