This one is one I've been reading off and on for awhile. It's about woman that calls herself Macy; her real name is Marcelene. She has been stalked by a killer the FBI has branded the "Buried Alive Killer"...he buries his victims (always families) up to their chins in makeshift graves and makes them watch as he strangles them one by one. He calls himself "Teddy".
The only way Macy knows how to escape Teddy is to run. Constantly on the run with a fake identification and a habit of nevering sticking around. She contacts a "special" FBI agent named Fia. In her attempt to her Fia and the FBI catch the Buried Alive Killer, Macy calls Fia and updates her when Teddy gives her information.
Fia is part of the Kahill sept; They worshipped the pagan gods and when St. Patrick came to their shore to convert them, they fought him. As a punishment, God turned the Kahill Sept into vampires; most of them were destroyed by slayers. The survivors fled to the New World and worshipped the One God, praying for redemption. They seek out and execute evil predators; those the police cannot catch, those like Teddy.
Don't get too caught up on those details, the book explains it all. What I didn't realize is that this was the sequel to V.K. Forrest's first Clare Point book, Eternal. It's on my Amazon list to read eventually. It was overall an ok read. The suspense was decent; the romance was questionable.
Ratings:
Overall I'll give it a B. It served its purpose; I read it, it passed time. It was a decent read; I don't have complaints, but also I am not about to rave about it.
