Londo Chronicles

Quiet, hardworking Joanna Wilder wants a life of her own. No more wayward sister. No surprises. And she'll have that in just five short days when her sister becomes the responsibility of a government-selected husband. But things don't go according to plan. Her sister vanishes into the mist of Londo City-a stronghold ruled by vampires. For Joanna, following the rules is over.

When vampire Overseers execute Eva Wilder's commissioner husband for treason, she is thrown out of her lavish home and stripped of everything. She has nowhere to go but a shack on the beach. There she finds a shipwrecked Croatian, who has come from abroad to kill the vampires of Londo City, including the devil who killed her husband. Will she help him? Eva flat out refuses. She is done with risky decisions-and men. But as Eva waits for the train back to Londo City, she recognizes her estranged sister in a line of prisoners. She knows the horrible fate her sister will face, and all because of her own rash decisions long ago. Eva has to do something. But what? Stay and rescue Joanna? Ask the vampire killer for help? They could all die…Eva must find the courage to battle the vampires who overrun her village, uncover the horrific secret of the Port Pennwood processing facility and vanquish the evil that stalks her sister and now her. This could be Eva's chance to redeem herself-or the worst decision she's ever made.
