Blood Drunk

<h2><b>London is about to be drunk dry.</b></h2><p><br><b>Tough gangsters, shadowy organisations and bloody vampires. A gritty pub crawl from the streets of South London to the hallways of vampire royalty. <i>Blood Drunk </i>is a pitch-black urban fantasy for fans of <i>Empire of the Vampire </i>and <i>Slow Horses.</i></b><br><br>Freddie Burns just wants ten pints, a fight, and to take over his uncle's fading gangland empire.<br><br>But when a routine hit goes wrong, Freddie stumbles into a secret London – one where vampires are real, monsters hide in plain sight and a ruthless power broker keeps it all buried. Good thing he has a talent for giving vampires a good kicking. Them, and anyone else who looks at him funny.<br><br>Freddie’s ability to rip magical strength from the death of living things makes him the most dangerous man in any room – and the most useful. From the blood-soaked streets of South London to the dark halls of vampire royalty, everyone wants him on their side, but no one trusts him. And he doesn’t trust himself.<br><br>Too bad it might be up to Freddie to save the world – or at least not wreck it entirely. He just needs a drink first.<br><br>* * *<br><br>‘Dark, violent, intelligent and quick.
