Not Your Daughter's Vampire

Robert Gillespie, a failed entrepreneur-turned-consultant, can't believe what he's hearing from Alec Carson, a young-looking environmental studies professor in Schenectady, New York. Robert had recently solved a facial recognition issue for a client where Alec was a false positive for Albert Einstein. Robert doesn't initially find much Einsteinian about Alec, but after they are approached by Kevin, an agent for a shadowy organization called the Association, Alec begins to tell Robert about his 2,500 year history as a studious, mankind-helping vampire during which he has been known as Socrates, Aristotle, da Vinci and Einstein. Is Alec telling the truth, or is he as warped as a backyard pool table? Either way, Not Your Daughter's Vampire will revamp your ideas of the undead. Kyle G.
