Slave of My Thirst

A man of science and reason, Dr. John Eliot eagerly joined a top-secret mission to far-off Kilikshutra, to investigate a mysterious epidemic. He returned to London plagued by memories of a horrific disease that decimates body and soul...and shaken by its shrouded ties to vampire lore. But when an old friend goes missing, Eliot searches the city's dark underbelly -- and finds his exotic, dangerous journey has only just begun...

Accompanied by Bram Stoker -- whose observations would emerge inhis immortal novel, Dracula -- Eliot encounters an irresistible temptation among the denizens of the night: the ravishing seductress Lilah. Gleaming with icy beauty, she will not rest until she has coaxed Eliot's most monstrous impulses into the open...and unleashed them on an unsuspecting London.
