"Confident, tough as nails and action packed!"

'the CULL - Bloodline' is a new, fast-paced and highly original take on vampire lore. 

No fangs; no morphing into bats; just adrenaline-pumping fury as two female Federal agents encounter the unimaginable.

Amy Bree's reckless actions result in death and her dismissal from the FBI.

A visit from a mysterious priest propels her back into the fray, as she is partnered with an ex-spy, with fearsome computer skills, and tasked to hunt down the serial killer known as the Blood Sucker.

Their quarry is not what they expect.

The body count rises… and the hunters become the hunted!
