Search - Realm of Shadows (Vampires, Bk 4)

An archeologist digs up a nasty vampiress who then proceeds to wreak havoc in Paris. The only ones who can stop her are Lucian, a good vampire from Drake's previous book (Deep Midnight); the enigmatic Brent, who may have supernatural abilities; and Tara Mason, a narrow-minded American whose grandfather happens to be a member of the Alliance, an age-old group dedicated to containing evil. An assortment of other characters join the mix including Tara's flippant French cousin, her mysterious beaux, a determined police inspector, a creepy investigator and a clueless young couple but they only detract from the central romance between Brent and Tara

A fun read about the history of vampires and werewolves set in the outskirts of Paris. My only complaint is that in an effort to add to the "spooky" or mysterious tone of the book there's lots of confusion about who people are. Names change as time passes and the good guys/bad guys are intentionally confused. This reader was irritated rather than spooked.

Great book!

In 1944 in an ancient churchyard just outside Paris, archeologists uncover an ancient tomb and something goes frighteningly wrong. Fast forward to present day, Tara Mason is visiting Europe and is chilled by the sinister goings on. She is fleeing from a legendary, sensual predator who stalks the night and wants to claim her body and soul. She must trust her protection to a shadowy man who calls himself a guardian, who has sworn to protect the innocent from an evil most never see.

This book is about modern vampires and the supernatural people who try to keep them in check and keep the rest of us, unsuspecting mortals safe.

very intriguing....plan to stay up late to finish this one!
