Sheena is a vampire from Leeds who works in a call center, and has a dark secret that even she doesn’t know about. Her boyfriend has to discover it the hard way, alas. Like the other two vampire stories included in the book, both of which feature vampire babies, 'Sheena' is a love story, which shares the life-enhancing attributes common to all love stories. Here are ten tales of the fantastic, the horrific, and the gothic, including: 'Rose, Crowned with Thorns,' 'Rent,' 'Tenebrio,' 'Behind the Wheel,' 'Innocent Blood,' 'Emptiness,' 'The Woman in the Mirror,' 'Regression,' 'Heartbreaker,' and 'Sheena.' Great reading by a great writer! 3
