Sonja Blue returns! Sonja Blue—known to vampires like herself and other
inhuman Pretenders as the "Blue Woman"—has gained quite a reputation. To
avenge herself on the monster who turned her into one of the walking undead,
Sonja haunts the shadows of the world’s greatest cities to rid them of the
vampires that stalk the unsuspecting human race. But she can never escape her
truest enemy: the Other, the vile demon who has shared her mind since she was
transformed twenty years ago. Sonja Blue knows what it’s like to have loved
and lost—those she loves are definitely lost—so she has grown accustomed to
a hard and lonely life. Until she meets "Harker," a vampire hunter with an
impressive list of kills. Harker’s real name is Jack Estes, and as Sonja soon
learns, he’s lost everything—his parents, his childhood, and his life—to
a thousand-year-old, vicious vampire who might just have the darkest heart of
all. Though she can’t quite explain why, Sonja agrees to take Jack on as her
apprentice. Now, as the pair hunt down this savage predator, murder and mayhem
are the only things they can truly count on. Jacket art by Thom Ang. (Approx.
216 pp.) A must for fans of Buffy and Laurell K. Hamilton!
