While there are many who embrace this new truth, there are those who would see things go back to the way they were where vampires skulked in shadows and humans were afraid of them. A recent turn of events outs them and their existence is finally able to be acknowledged. For countless centuries vampires and other creatures have existed behind the scenes. Broken down, it comes across as simple enough. Perhaps I should start with the overall plot. It has been over a week since I finished reading Graveyard Shift and still I do not know where to begin in reviewing it. Sadly, it seems that this particular review falls more in to the latter than the former. There are other times, however, where trying to write even a mediocre review is akin to pulling teeth the words simply do not want to come and each one is a struggle. There are times when writing a review is the easiest thing in the world the words just flow from my fingertips and I am (hopefully) able to get my point across when I say how much I liked or dis-liked a book. It soon becomes a race against time for the two detectives to find who is behind the tainted blood and what their end game is. When bottles of tainted artificial blood begin turning up on store shelves, the already tremulous relations between humans and vampires becomes even more fragile. When the program was dissolved the two became police officers in a special unit where they continue to keep the streets safe from the monsters they hunted once before. There was no longer a need for them to hide as they had done for centuries before.Īlex Menkaure is a mummy and former Egyptian pharaoh and along with his partner Marcus, a vampire born in ancient Rome, the two once hunted evil vampires for a super-secret arm of the NSA. Due to these two events, vampires and other mythological creatures were able to integrate in to society.
