 Darksome Thirst by Morven Westfield
When Alicia Anderson first became aware of the shadows in the computer room, she dismissed them as figments of an overactive imagination. Meanwhile, fledgling witch Matricaria has begun to receive psychic messages - vivid dreams and tarot card readings - that point to a terrible fate for someone near her. She and her coven attempt to decipher the symbols, hoping to prevent a tragedy. Soon the lives of these very different women intersect.
Darksome Thirst is a fast-paced, atmospheric tale of a young woman who must resolve the difference between what her logical mind tells her and what she is actually experiencing. That man who appeared in the computer room, the one who left two tiny marks on her neck... No, he couldn't be!
Can Matricaria, a mere trainee, decode the nightmares in time to save Alicia? Is Matricaria or her coven any match for a vampire who has lived for nearly a century?
Set in the late 1970s in the fictional town of Danforth, which bears a striking resemblance to Framingham, Massachusetts, Darksome Thirst is the first in a series of novels about Alicia and Matricaria and their battles against the unknown.
Why Would I Want to Read This Book? Because you love the vampire mythos, but are a little bored with whiny, materialistic brats and want to get back to some of mysterious darkness that drew you to Dark Shadows and the old Hammer films.
