Highblood

HOUSEMATE WANTED.

Must not mind bloodstains or screaming at any hour. Low rent in exchange for full confidence.

The last thing Henry Solomon Crow wants is to live with a human. Yes, he's bound by law to keep him in touch with his "humanity", but shouldn't the fact that he's half human give him an advantage?

Ordered to hunt down a serial killer with a penchant for staging victims' bodies as nursery rhymes, Henry is told that Evelyn Dynan is here to stay. Something he is all too willing to rectify.

But Evelyn Dynan is sure that if she can survive three-day tequila hangovers, then Henry Solomon Crow is a glass of water. Determined to make her recent move to London a success, Evelyn is far too busy partying, painting or preparing for another night of debauchery to take notice of how much blood Henry drags in.

Providing a false alibi to protect Henry, the two housemates are forced into a dance of pretence to keep the other safe. Riots are breaking out across London, Henry's bosses are sure Evelyn is a threat, and an expos?brings Henry's connection to Evelyn under unwanted attention.

Because the murderer is after a fresh kill.

And Evelyn Dynan is the perfect addition.

A delicious gothic urban fantasy where the most dangerous man in London might also be the only one that can keep you alive...
