The Dark Stirs: Book One of The Dark Matter Series

A night out turns deadly when Angelique Carlson crosses paths with a deluded maniac roaming the streets of Baltimore, but this is no ordinary killer. Helpless in the monster's arms, she knows the reality-she had felt his frigid touch... had seen his deadly fangs:

"His name is Anders Saffenssen, and he is a vampire."

Her unlikely savior, John Paul Wilkins, is not deterred by her talk of vampires and shadows. This bland, unaspiring man falls deeply for her. His mundane life brings safety and stability to their growing relationship.

Life goes on... until it doesn't.

The repercussions of that ill-fated night send Angelique into a spiral of self-destruction, and despite his love for her, John begins to doubt her sanity. Their fragile relationship rips apart.

Pulled down the path of darkness, Angelique follows the one thing she knows for sure:

She will pursue the truth of this vampire... and she will know its secrets.
