Vampyres Of Hollywood

Hollywood, California: an Oscar winner, an ingenue, and an action hero - each dying a gruesome death. A serial killer is working through the Hollywood A-list and the town is shutting down.

Each murder looks like an X rated horror film and all three victims share a connection to scream queen Ovsanna Moore. Ms. Moore is the head of Anticipation Studios and the writer and star of seventeen blockbuster horror films, several less than successful ones and a few that went straight to DVD.

She's also a vampyre.

Beverly Hills Police Detective Peter King knows a lot about the City of Angels, but what he doesn’t know is that most of the power elite in town belong to an established network of vampyres. Or that the secretive and seductive Ovsanna Moore happens to be their CEO.

Moore and King may be from opposite sides of the Hollywood Hills, but both have something to gain by stopping the killer whom the tabloids have dubbed the Cinema Slayer. Ovsanna must protect her vampyre clan and her production schedule, while King just wants to keep his Beverly Hills beat as blood-free as possible. But when the horror queen and the cop with the movie star looks form an unholy alliance, sparks fly and so do the creatures of the night.

Television, film, and Broadway star Adrienne Barbeau and New York Times bestselling author Michael Scott have teamed up to deliver this sexy, scary, and deliciously clever novel full of Hollywood glamour, behind-the-scenes secrets, and the bloodthirsty reality of Tinseltown. So grab some popcorn and some holy water and lose yourself in the back-stabbing (with silver stakes, of course) world of the Vampyres of Hollywood.
