Inhaltsangabe

He was supposed to prove she was a murderer. Falling in love with her was never part of the investigation.

Homicide detective Elias Voss has spent his career believing every murder has a rational explanation.
Then he meets Vivienne Vale.

A prominent businessman has been found dead inside an abandoned seaside church, his body almost completely drained of blood. There’s no murder weapon, no blood at the scene, and no explanation for the two strange punctures in his neck.

Every clue seems to lead Elias to Vivienne—a beautiful, enigmatic woman from one of Grayhaven’s oldest families.
She knows things about the murder she shouldn’t. She has no convincing alibi. Old photographs raise impossible questions about her past. And the closer Elias gets to the truth, the more certain he becomes that Vivienne Vale is hiding something extraordinary.

He’s right.

Vivienne is a vampire.

But she isn’t the killer.

As another bloodless body appears, Elias is forced to do the unthinkable: trust the woman who had been his number-one suspect. Together, detective and vampire uncover a trail of hidden experiments, forgotten murders, blood magic, and secrets buried beneath Grayhaven for more than a century.

Someone is recreating the horrors of the past.

Someone wants Vivienne blamed for the murders.

And someone has begun taking a dangerous interest in Elias himself.

But the deeper Elias ventures into Vivienne’s world, the more complicated his investigation becomes. Because beneath his suspicion is an attraction neither of them can ignore—and trusting Vivienne may prove far less dangerous than falling in love with her.

A slow-burn paranormal romance wrapped inside an atmospheric murder mystery, The Blood Between Us is Book One of The Mortal Vein Mysteries, Morgan Ashcroft’s five-book supernatural romantic-suspense series featuring Detective Elias Voss and the immortal Vivienne Vale.
