A 154-year-old nonhuman painter is living quietly in Los Angeles when he receives a cryptic message from a lover he last saw in 1913—when he killed him, or so he had always thought. Set in contemporary LA, with excursions into the outback of Southern California's high desert, Running Dry is a stunningly realized vampire tale of vengeance, loyalty, and the inescapable humanity of the inhuman.
