Horror & ghost stories

The old song warned of the beautiful Bolade sisters, Patience and Prudence, whose undying rivalry was said to stretch even beyond the grave. But Count Rudolfo Zginski has never heard this song. A suave Continental vampire, staked to death more than sixty years ago, he has only recently risen again to stalk the nights of Memphis, Tennessee, circa 1975. Although new to the modern world, he has quickly developed a taste for its luxuries - in particular, high-speed automobiles. Yet the seventies are not without their perils, even for so cunning a predator. Zginski's pursuit of a cherry 1973 Ford Mustang brings him into conflict with a legendary redneck sheriff with a short temper and a big baseball bat. His fascination with an enticing undead chanteuse and her equally seductive sister threatens not only his own ageless existence, but that of the small coven of modern-day vampires he has grudgingly taken under his wing. Zginski has escaped limbo once, but can he free himself from the tangled web of the girls who play games of blood?

Reviews for Girls with the Games of Blood (#2 Rudolfo Zginski)

""The intricate plot is peopled with fully developed characters. Definitely one of the better vampire novels lately."" --Booklist on The Girls with Games of Blood ""An intoxicating brew of mystery, humor, and horror. This edgy, enthralling, entertaining tale is recommended for all fantasy collections."" --Library Journal on Blood Groove ""I love vampire stories, and when one's as new and fresh as Blood Groove, it's just plain delicious. One very sweet read."" --Whitley Strieber ""Bledsoe weaves another dark, sexy, and breath-taking tale full of mesmerizing atmosphere and quiet escalating horror. You won't be able to put the book down until you've read to the end. Just because a monster's heart awakens, doesn't make it any less of a monster."" --Adrian Phoenix, author of Beneath the Skin
