Margaret and Velda

Margaret is confronted by a classmate during a charity event. "My stepfather is a vampire and you must help me to kill him," Velda begs. Sensing disbelief, Velda invites Margaret to visit her home and to see for herself. Murders begin, these being described as "vampire deaths" because of their symptoms, and terror spreads from Greenwich across America. Margaret's fear increases when the brutally tortured body of Velda's mother is found. But Margaret has allies too: Vladimir, a former general in Russia's Presidential Security Service; Erika, the only child of Greenwich's billionaire widower; wealthy, respectable Aunt Lena, whose stories educate Margaret about love; and a disabled lawyer, Margaret's father, whose courage sets the example for her life. R. L. Rhyse, a former resident of Greenwich, Connecticut, is the author of the books in the Margaret of Greenwich(R) series. These include Margaret of Greenwich, Margaret and Erika, Margaret at War, Margaret in Tokyo, and Margaret and Eve.
