Paranormal/ Urban Fanstasy tale by Jennifer Rardin, first in the Jaz Parks series. Jasmine "Jaz" Parks is a female James Bond-ish CIA agent who fights supernatural crimes with her vamp partner Vayl. Jaz and Vayl get caught up in a case involving vamps trying to unleash a vamp pandemic, and release an ancient evil. The story moves quickly, and has witty dialogue, and interesting characters. But not everything ties together in a neat package. Parts of the plot still leave me shaking my head. This might have been a better story, broken down into to parts; the virus, then the "demon." Just didn't flow neatly and leaves alot of things unanswered. But, it is entertaining, and I'll probably read the second in series to see if things clear up. Not the best in this genre, but good.
