Until the night his parents are murdered, Elvis Taggard's world doesn't extend far beyond the Starry Night Trailer Park. He never suspects there's a secret society of bloodsuckers lurking in the shadows of the main streets and back roads of modern-day America. All that changes one fateful night come dinnertime after a sexy succubus satisfies her hunger by gorging on second helpings of the boy's momma and daddy. Elvis stakes her, then sets out to slay the rest of the children of the night, weaving a bloody path of destruction that stretches from southern mansions to trailer parks, from northeastern goth clubs to the set of a high budget Hollywood splatter movie. With the help of a lunatic millionaire and an Irish Vampire with a serious chip on his shoulder and a set of sharp canines in his mouth to match-Elvis might accomplish just that-unless the trio wind up killing one another before the vampires get there first.
Trailer Trash Reviews

I don't normally go in for the vampire thing but I found this book - particularly its descriptions of trailer park life and the main character's childhood of poverty - to elevate this vampire story to a different level. Plenty of the usual vampire stuff but the excellent execution of the story - starting off in Hollywood and then moving to rural backwaters of low country trailer parks - to be new, refreshing and enough to keep me interested through the whole story.

This is a fast-paced book. It's not so fast-paced, though, that the author loses sight of characterization and plot details. The tale is told in the first person, giving an immediacy to the telling. It's also a heck of a lot of fun to read.
