Author Description

Crimson Nightfall follows Marisol Cortez, a determined investigative journalist who stumbles upon a series of grisly nighttime murders in her modern-day city. Drawn by her relentless curiosity, Marisol quickly realizes the crimes point toward a secretive, centuries-old vampire society known as the Ebon Veil-and they're far more powerful than any mere rumor. With each new clue, she plunges deeper into hidden vampire politics and lethal encounters, struggling to balance her desire for truth with the reality of inhuman predators. When Marisol narrowly survives a vampire attack, she joins forces with her best friend Cassidy, whose courage anchors Marisol in an increasingly surreal world. Their unlikely ally is Dorian, a vampire who rejects the Ebon Veil's brutal ways. Detective Nia Rawlins, tough and wary of supernatural explanations, spearheads the official hunt. Together, this fragile alliance races to expose Lord Amon, the ancient leader of the Ebon Veil, who plots to tighten his society's grip on human prey. Tensions culminate in a series of raids-first stymied by cunning vampire defenses, then culminating in a final battle in the catacombs beneath the infamous Blackwood Estate. At last, Marisol and her allies corner Amon, shattering his centuries-old reign. Though they topple the Ebon Veil's stronghold, the public narrative is spun as a violent "cult" takedown-leaving true talk of vampires to rumor and hushed confessions. Even so, Crimson Nightfall ends with both humans and reformed vampires pledging vigilance against the next threat. Marisol reclaims her life-bruised but unbroken-knowing shadows remain. If the city once again faces creatures lurking in the night, she and her allies will be ready.
