"Superb blending of a police procedural with a vampire tale"
Though the link of the last two victims is a nightclub,
the serial killer has frightened much of New York City,
especially Manhattan. The FBI assigns Agent Diana Reyes
to go undercover to ferret out the murderer. Club owner
Ryder Latimer meets Diana and they are instantly attracted
to one another. However, he is has been a vampire since
the Civil War and knows first hand the fleeting life of
mortals and though he desires the cop he wants to end
their relationship before it begins so neither gets
hurt. Diana deduces that there is something special and
different about Ryder when she begins dreaming of him in
gory environs. She wonders if she gave her heart to a
killer of women. However, will the truth prove kinder to
Diana and if so can they truly make THE PERFECT MIX NOW
AND FOREVER? DARKNESS CALLS is a superb blending of a police
procedural with a vampire tale. The story line works
because the lead couple, her partner, and several club
employees and customers make the Manhattan scene including
a vampire and a serial killer seem genuine. Fans who enjoy
a well written but different type of novel will want to
read Caridad Pineiro's sensational supernatural FBI
investigative romance. Harriet Klausner
