Search - Death Masque (Jonathan Barrett, Bk 3)

The problem with this author and his series (all of them) is that its the same story every time, with only small changes - regular guy wakes up with a vampire surprise - people try to kill him but can't, and in the meanwhile some pathetic mystery is solved in heavy-handed fashion.

Don't get me wrong, compared with the multitude of crap that's out there - this stuff is fairly well written, but the dialogue is stilted, and again - you get deja vu when you read each one, because they are ALL the SAME! Read one. Then stop - you've read them all.

When he died, Jonathan Barrett was buried. But it was not his fate to stay in the freshly turned earth--the legacy of a new vampire bloodline pulled him from that early grave. Is his strange destiny a miracle, or a curse? Only one unearthly soul knows...and Nora Jones had disappeared.

Jonathan's quest to find her her draws him back into the strange fold of his family, where a malevolent plot against them is taking shape. But his enemies will soon discover that it is not easy to kill a Barrett--especially one that is already dead.
