Charlotte Caine isn''t called "the Vampire Chef" because she''s a member of New York''s undead community-she just cooks for them. Her restaurant, Nightlife, is poised to take the top slot in the world of "haute noir" cuisine.

Now, with her brother under suspicion for the murder, Charlotte has to re-open her restaurant and clear her brother''s name-before they both become dinner.
