Bloodsucking Fiends: A Love Story - Paperback

by Christopher Moore (Author)

From the bestselling author of A Dirty Job, this "deft and funny" (The New York Times Book Review) first book of the Bloodsucking Fiends series is a vampire romance like none other following a recently turned vampire and the small-town midwesterner who becomes her unlikely ally in the search to find a blood-draining killer.Jody never asked to become a vampire. But when she wakes up in an alley with a badly burned arm, an aching back, superhuman strength, and a distinctly Nosferatuan thirst, she realizes the decision has been made for her. What she doesn't realize is that this is only the beginning. Tommy has just arrived in San Francisco, full of dreams of becoming the next literary wunderkind. Instead he ends up working at the local Safeway and playing frozen turkey bowling with the motley night crew. But one night Tommy meets the strikingly beautiful Jody on one of her nocturnal visits to the supermarket and gets the surprise of his life when the casual date they make to meet the next night (after sunset, of course) triggers the start of a relationship destined to span eternity. All seems to be going well--until the blood-drained bodies begin piling up around the city. Now it's up to Jody and Tommy to find the perpetrator behind the attacks before one of them becomes the next victim.
