From the back of the book:

It began with blood and death amid the streets of late-night Toronto. Vicki Nelson, formerly of Toronto's homicide detail, now a private investigator, witnessed the first attack by the force of dark magic that would soon wreak its reign of terror on the unsuspecting city. And as death followed unspeakable death, Vicki bacame more and more deeply enmeshed in an investigation which would see her renewing her stormy relationship with her former police partner, Mike Cellluci, even as she teamed up with writer Henry Fitzroy in a desperate attempt to track down the source of the seemingly unstopppable attacks. For Fitzroy, the illegitimate son of Henry VIII, had knowledge of realms beyond the mrotal acquired ove rthe centuries during which he'd mastered his own insatiable needs--the life-from-death cravings of a vampire.
Henry Fitzroy had long since learned to survive without killing, learned the skills needed to blend in with the human race. But unless he, Vicki, and Mike could find the key to conquering the magic-raised menace stalking the streets of Toronto, Fitzroy's true identity might soon be exposed and his life might prove forfeit to the uncontrollable fears of humankind. And without Henry Fitzroy, mere mortals like Vicki and Mike would not long survive against the ancient force of chaos that had been loosed on their world...

This series was made into a television series on the Lifefime Network in March 2007
