Back from the Undead

Vampires, lycanthropes, golems, and other creatures who make up 99% of the population — these are the characters who fill FBI profiler Jace Valchek’s days. And just when she thinks life is starting to seem “normal,” Jace finds herself in a whole new world of trouble.

Another work day, another case for the Bloodhound Files. But this time, Jace is truly stumped: How is she, a mere human, supposed to penetrate the dark heart of a child-trafficking ring of pire orphans — one that turns out to be part of a blood-farm operation, in the crime-ridden border city of Vancouver, British Columbia?

Jace is in over her head. But with the help of her former lover, Tanaka — whose family is one of the last samurai clans left in Japan — she stands a chance at seeking justice for the condemned children… Until the Yakuza tries to put an end to Jace’s investigation. Jace risks more than death — this time, it’s the fate of her very soul that’s in danger...
