O knihe

Evalyn Anderson has created an unforgettable cast of characters - Derek, an attorney, who has kept his "vampire disease" a deep, dark secret until a murderer who hates him discovers his medical records during a burglary and tries to frame a vampire murder on him; "Doc," a rare and exotic disease specialist, who keeps Derek healthy, and Gale Blackburn, a court reporter, most of whose life story is a deep, dark secret. The police were stymied, after they finally accepted Derek's alibi, as to why an unidentified woman's corpse with fake fang marks in her neck was left in Derek's condo. The detectives could find no clue with which to unravel the mystery, since all efforts to identify the victim failed. Gale turned detective because she feared that the killer would try to kill Derek, the man she loved, himself, since his scheme to send Derek to prison for murder had failed .Without telling Derek, she recruited three men who repaired her classic car when necessary, to guard Derek's condo, in case the killer began to stalk him. They soon discovered that she might be the next intended victim. Using herself for bait, she managed to kill the killer before he killed her. This should have been the end of it, but the police could not identify the killer. She kept working on this puzzle, just in case he had a hidden partner. Ultimately, she put all the pieces together. Gale was happy to leave her detective role, including the hairy car chases, constant apprehension and vigilance, behind. Little did she know that soon the kidnapping of her friend, Vidal Noyes, an engineer and inventor at NASA would pull her back into a detective role. At least, in THE NASA CONSPIRACY her own life is not on the line.
