Bøger i Sinners Never Die serien

Bazyli Breznik used to rule the world, but now the centuries old vampire is at the bottom of the food chain. He's broke and drives a yellow cab in NYC. He sleeps in the trunk. He's an alcoholic. His only friends are drunks. He's a murderer and believes he's the most evil creature on earth. He's wrong. Baz is in hiding, like the rest of his kind. They aren't like normal humans, they were changed more than five hundred years ago by a virus into a version of human who never grows old, heals fast, and requires fresh blood for nutrition. The vampires of myth and legend aren't some kind of magical beings, they're real people whose disease is both blessing and curse. And Baz was once the badest of them all. Baz is satisfied with living a marginal life on the edge of society as punishment for all the sins he committed centuries ago. A waitress at one of the diners in his area is nearly kidnapped in front of him. He steps in only to discover that the waitress is really an undercover cop who is part of a sting operation. Baz ends up agreeing to be an informant so the cops will leave him alone. But the traffickers try to take the lady cop, Nika, again, and Baz becomes annoyed. She's good people, and he's always hated slavery. When Nika is finally taken on try number three, he's not content to look and listen anymore. He discovers that the criminals behind the ring aren't just bad people, they're the kind of bad he used to be. And they don't care who they hurt, or who finds out about them. He's got to stop them, get Nika back, and manage not to kill too many people all at the same time. He wasn't cut out to be a good guy.

Yvgeny Breznik, the CEO of a large corporation in New York City, has a laundry list of problems. A micro-managing aunt, a cousin who doesn't know the meaning of the word restraint, and a new employee who occupies far too much of his attention. Samantha Dubets is his onsite medic, and she doesn't know when to stop trying to protect the city's most vulnerable citizens from their own mistakes. It's all he can do to keep her out of trouble and his hands off her. Oh, and he's an eight-hundred-year-old vampire. One of less than two hundred in the entire world. Over the years, fewer and fewer people have been born with the genetic quirk necessary to become one, which means vampires are on the brink of extinction and desperate to enlarge their numbers. Samantha's blood reveals that she has the best chance of becoming a vampire of any human in a couple centuries. As a result, old alliances, treaties, and promises are tossed aside for the chance to take her. Other vampires want her to have children, as many as possible, then change her. But none of them are going to ask nicely. Yvgeny isn't going to allow any of them to touch her because she belongs to him. Samantha, however, has other plans...
