The blood-chilling fourth installment in the series Publishers Weekly calls “dead on.”

If you think the stakes in your high school are high, imagine what it’s like for a teenage vampire.

It’s another awful year at Bathory High for Vladimir Tod. Joss, a professional vampire slayer and Vlad’s former friend, has moved back to town. The powerful vampire Dorian has an overwhelming desire to drink Vlad’s blood. And his arch enemy, D’Ablo, has brought Vlad’s Uncle Otis to trial for crimes against vampires. So much for dating.

When the tables turn on Vlad, he has just enough time to return to Bathory for his final good-byes.
