HIS NAME IS DANTE.

Dark. Talented. Beautiful. Star of the rock band Inferno. Rumored owner of the hot New Orleans nightspot Club Hell. Born of the Blood, then broken by an evil beyond imagination.

HIS PAST IS A MYSTERY.

F.B.I. Special Agent Heather Wallace has been tracking a sadistic serial murderer known as the Cross Country Killer, and the trail has led her to New Orleans, Club Hell, and Dante. But the dangerously attractive musician not only resists her investigation, he claims to be "nightkind": in other words, a vampire. Digging into his past for answers reveals little. A juvenile record a mile long. No social security number. No known birth date. In and out of foster homes for most of his life before being taken in by a man named Lucien DeNoir, who appears to guard mysteries of his own.

HIS FUTURE IS CHAOS.

What Heather does know about Dante is that something links him to the killer -- and she's pretty sure that link makes him the CCK's next target. Heather must unravel the truth about this sensual, complicated, vulnerable young man -- who, she begins to believe, may indeed be a vampire -- in order to finally bring a killer to justice. But Dante's past holds a shocking, dangerous secret, and once it is revealed not even Heather will be able to protect him from his destiny....

People stand and stare at Me
eyes accusing, watching Me
makin' remarks and downin' Me
but still today I'm here.


They'd make me want to hurt Myself
want to break and bleed Myself
till My soul would leave this hell
but still today I'm here.


I got real strong to stop the tears
made Myself forget My fears
turned away and closed My ears
and today I am truly here.

Is There A True "American Vampire" Myth?
The European settlers and African slaves brought the vampire mythology of their homelands to the New World. In some cases these myths became intertwined as settlers from many backgrounds melded into a single nation. While Native American mythology has some very fascinating monsters, some of them being flesh-eaters, others being shape-changers, none are true bloodsuckers. Yet, there is a true "American vampire," one born of this young nation, one found only here in America. This vampire is much more than a meld of the beliefs of the Native Americans and those of our forefathers.

I have tried again and again to be happy,
And stay in this world of yours,
Not playing by my own rules,
But by yours,
Contained in self indulgence,
And behind heavy curtains I hinde behind a mask,
Known for it's intensity and madness,
Should I be amazing today?
Or that psychotic bitch that lurks behind every dark corner of your mind?
How about the happy liar, who smirks at your every distateful comment?
How about another day?
Can I be myself today?
Alone, staying here watching the world go by,
