Savannah, Georgia - Present Day

Vampire Jack McShane is on his way to Hell. His girlfriend, police officer Connie Jones, has convinced voodoo priestess Melaphia to send her to the underworld so that she can be reunited with her dead son one last time. Jack is terrified that Connie won’t make it back after his sire William barely survived his trip there. While searching for Connie, Jack is horrified to find William’s dead mate Eleanor living out a fate worse than he could have imagined, and watches in dread as Connie receives her destiny as the prophesied Vampire Slayer from a group angels. When he manages to return to the human world, Jack is glad to find Connie not far behind him, and not remembering anything that happened while she was in the underworld.

William has just returned from Europe after rescuing Melaphia’s daughter Renee. He has news to share of the ancient vampires' regrouping and plans to wreak havoc on the world, but finding out what Jack witnessed in the underworld will put that on hold. Meeting with other vampire leaders from across the country, it is unanimously agreed that Jack must kill the Slayer before she comes to power. But another surprise awaits the very unhappy Jack when he goes to kill the woman he loves, and he cannot carry out his orders. Even more troubling for the vampires are the things that they do not know. All hell is about to break loose on the human and paranormal world, and this time it may be too much for the Savannah vampires to fight.

THE VAMPIRE’S BETRAYAL is a dark and deadly tale. Jack is torn between love for his family and the love he has for Connie. William is at a complete loss and near hopeless trying to find the answers he needs. Great storytelling, suspense, and characters grab the reader’s attention from the first page.
