Biography
Lenka Dusek was born in the Czech Republic. She immigrated with her family to the UK in 2002. Having studied English literature at university (Masaryk University, Czech Republic) she decided to take up writing, and became a freelance ghost writer for a number of UK authors.

She has been all over Europe searching for evidence of paranormal activity, and has undertaken extensive research into vampire folklore. Her fascination for the supernatural has never waned.
Most of the characters in her works are modeled on the real people, particularly those people she traveled with and who shared her interest in the occult.

Casey had often referred to it as the witch's bathroom. But that was just tongue in cheek. Her mother had always been a bit of an eccentric decorator and Casey didn't think for a moment that there was anything in it. But little did she know how much evil really lurked within the walls of that small room... not until that fateful day when she looked up and found herself face to face with a ghost.

The three rules of vampire survival:
1. Never leave a witness.
2. Never leave evidence.
3. Never leave a pattern.
Of course, a non-human witness will never tell.
When Sam goes out on the hunt she sees a pair of amber eyes that can help her out. A lone wolf. He might be near the top of the food chain in the wild but he can't refuse the commands of a powerful revenant like her.

Sam has high expectations for the newest vampire in the city - a young man called Ben. She should have... she was the one who converted him. As a mortal Ben had been strong, sharp-minded, and dashing, with a well developed dark side, so he should have made a great prince of darkness.
But Sam soon starts to wonder about her choice. Especially when she finds herself wet-nursing the new recruit.
