Nighthaul

They hunt America's highways. Now something is hunting them.

For seventy years, Silas Crane has traveled America's highways behind the wheel of an eighteen-wheeler, hunting serial killers and other predators who escape justice.

He knows what monsters are.

Because he is one.

Silas is a vampire with a code. He never kills the innocent. Never feeds simply because he's hungry. And never trusts his supernatural ability to recognize evil without proof.

But the road has a way of bringing dangerous people together.

State Trooper Delaney Boone believes in the law, in evidence, and in bringing killers to justice. When a series of disturbing deaths draws her toward a mysterious truck driver who seems to know far more than he should, everything she believes begins to unravel.

Silas is dangerous, secretive, and unlike any man she's ever encountered.

She should arrest him.

She should fear him.

She certainly shouldn't fall in love with him.

As Del follows the evidence deeper into a world of highway predators and buried secrets, she discovers that the man she's hunting may be the only one capable of helping her uncover the truth about her missing sister.

But someone else is watching.

Someone who knows Silas's past, understands his weaknesses, and has waited decades for the opportunity to exploit them.

And the closer Del gets to Silas, the more dangerous loving him becomes.

Some monsters hunt the innocent. Others hunt the monsters.

Nighthaul is Book One of The Bloody Corridor, a dark, slow-burn vampire romance and supernatural crime thriller where justice has fangs, love comes with a price, and the deadliest predator on the highway may be the one fighting to remain human.
