About this listen
Never say never.
Two years ago, Deirdre Griffin swore she would never return to New York City, swore she would never again see the love of her life, Mitch Greer. But never is a long time, especially to a vampire. As her self-imposed exile in London grows ever more complicated and debased by the haunting influence of the dead vampire who turned her, she’s almost relieved when Christopher Greer shows up to enlist her help in saving his father’s sanity.
When she returns, Deirdre learns of the Cadre, an international organization of vampires. They’re the ones responsible for driving Mitch into insanity, as punishment for his murder of one of their own. Deirdre knows he is innocent since she herself drove the stake deep into her maker’s heart. There is no choice–she must save Mitch, but at what cost–love, liberty, or the end of her eternal life?
Author's Note: This book is a reissue of the original novel BITTER BLOOD. It is not a new novel.

Who was her creator?
This is a fantastic world building story for The Vampire Legacy setting, but compared to the first book, this one is more drama, than thrills. The story picks up a couple of years after the first book and focuses on the fallout of that story's climax. While that story unfolds, you learn more about Deidre's creator and their origins, while she deals with more of her kind that she didn't even know existed.
Karen E. Taylor does a good job of expanding her lore and grows your ties to the characters with her writing in this story. And, to my pleasure, Autumn Grumorne returns for the narration, bringing her excellent voice work to this audio book as well.
