Résumé

Charlie Pike, a detective with the Boston Police Department, gets a call from his hometown in Vermont, asking if he wants to be their new police chief. It's an appealing offer, but it would mean telling his wife Abbie, and eventually their kids Natalie and Marcus, about the "V's" - the hundred or so residents of Vesper Glen with symbionts that make them live for centuries, heal rapidly from wounds, avoid sunlight and garlic, and regularly need to consume blood.
Even after Abbie overcomes her initial skepticism, and Charlie takes the job, she's still apprehensive about her new neighbors, including leading citizen John Saxon, town doctor Meara Desmond, and night-shift Sergeant Ray Dante. Still, the family settles into small town life, sharing the ancestral Pike house with Charlie's elderly dad. Then a run-in with a biker gang gets the attention of an FBI agent, a hostile Army officer, a marauding band of V's whose leader holds a grudge against John, and a secret society of fanatical vampire hunters.
All of this will test the ingenuity and determination of the entire community .Coryn Noble weaves a rich narrative tapestry that reinvents the vampire, and raises questions of what it means to be human - or what makes a monster - through the eyes of a small town cop, his family, and his neighbors.
