It's the
autumn of 1996
.
Sam Wayne
is one of
Glitter City's Unwilling Orphan Alumna Afterliving
. He's self-described as the most terrible vampire around. He's also hooked into the pulse of the city and the world as an accomplished computer security breaker.
Vangie Forrest
is the daughter of one of the most powerful
werewolves
in the area, with a jealous and possessive mostly ex-boyfriend.
When the two meet by chance in a coffee shop, and go for a spur-of-the-moment walk in the park, things go from puppy-love to save-the-city with a
murderous apocalypse cult
trying to wipe Glitter City from the map. As the two of them tumble from fights to fast cars to ballrooms to campgrounds, their attraction and affection for each other grows.
Can the two young lovers from different and hostile worlds bridge the gap and remain together? Or, will old habits, old obligations, bitter rivalries, petty disputes and long memories destroy them?
In Glitter City, even a cup of coffee can get complicated, fast.
