What is this book about?
When Supernatural Investigation Bureau agent Bluebell Kildare (a.k.a. Blue) arrives at the scene of the crime, it's obvious the grotesquely damaged body of the deceased teenage boy was caused by far more than a simple hit and run. Using her innate sixth sense, Blue uncovers a powerful magical artifact nearby. She soon discovers it acts as a key to an ancient Grimiore that was instrumental in the creation of the Vampire breed and still holds the power to unravel the boundaries between Earth and the Plane of Fire.
 
Blue and her clever wolf Varg follow a trail that starts at the Cock and Bull Tap and leads all through the town of Crimson Hollow. Between being sidelined by a stalker who sticks to the shadows and chasing a suspect who vanishes in thin air, the case is getting complicated. If that isn't enough, Dark Vampire activity hits a record high, and hate crimes are increasing. However, it's Blue’s growing feelings for Jack Tanner, her magnetic Daylight Vampire boss, that just might undo her.
 
While Blue searches for clues to nail the perpetrator, it seems someone else is conducting a search of their own. Who will find whom first?
 
Danger lurks in every corner, and Blue needs all her focus in this increasingly dangerous game or she risks ending up the next victim.

What you may not know about Leukemia and Lymphoma.
They are blood cancers and often target children, even infants, even babies in the womb! Blood cancers are the most common type of cancer children face.  

  

My daughter was one of them. 

 Here she is at Cancer Camp. Yes, I'm both happy and sad to report there is actually a camp for kids with cancer. Happy because it exists, sad because there is a need.

 

Here she is as bald as the day she was born, ready to go to a highschool dance. I was very worried she would fall as she had collapsed recently in a video store. One of the chemotherapies attacks muscle. But she made it through okay.

Here she is at the homecoming game. She was probably in need of a blood transfusion at this point, her skin was so pale. She couldn't walk across the whole field.

Here she is at her sweet 16th birthday party. Her hair was just growing in. Little did we know a massive bloodclot was growing in her brain, due to the chemotherapy.

Here she is with me at a restaurant. She wore these little tees so that the nurses could access a port that was embedded in her chest to inject the chemotherapy directly to a main blood vessel. 

Here she is now. You see that tattoo? 

It covers the scar from where her port was embedded and it reads:

Survivor!

Not all of her friends from cancer camp were as lucky as she was. Let's Stop Blood Cancers!
