When Vicki Nelson witnesses an attack on the Toronto subway she can hardly believe her eyes. The victim had his throat laid open and his blood drained by a dark shadow that moved impossibly fast. She can't quite believe her eyes but is forced to confront the possibility that dark beings live amongst us.

Henry Fitzroy is one such dark being. As a vampire he knows that secrecy is his best protection. Should the world discover his kind there will be blood on the streets and more than likely it will be his blood. He joins forces to hunt down the creature that is killing the people of Toronto and try to stop something much worse from being summoned.

Blood Price is OK but dated. It was written before cell phones...honestly before fax machines were all that common. The internet was still in its infancy. There were no Kindles or Nooks. Kurt Cobain was alive and well and completely unknown outside of Seattle. To put the book into its place on a timeline....this:

So it's an OK book that was probably great in 1990 but doesn't quite pass the age test.
