WHEN THESE CRIMINALS PUT THE BITE ON, THEY'RE NOT KIDDING! From acclaimed writer Howard Chaykin (American Flagg!, Black Kiss, American Century), David Tischman and penciller David Hahn (Private Beach) comes a tale of crime that has real bite! Eduardo del Toro is dead. Unsurprising, to those who knew him simply as the head of one of the West Coast's most powerful criminal organisations, but absolutely shocking to his lieutenants and his son, Leto - who knew he was also a vampire! As the killer used wooden bullets, it's obvious he or she knew the truth too...Now Leto, a former priest thrust into the world of organised crime, must find the killer, and fast - before someone takes a bite out of him! Warning: Adults Only!

"Blood may be thicker than water, but it isn't thicker than money. That's something the Del Toros--the vampire clan that runs organized crime in Miami--know all too well. Beautiful, rich and immortal, these bloodsuckers are masters of backstabbing and infighting-- and when their patriarch Eduardo is killed, the fangs really come out. Youngest son Leto vowed to leave his family's sins behind when he became a priest, and his ambitious sister Risa would be happy to keep it that way. But Eduardo's will names Leto as his successor, leaving Daddy's little girl on the sidelines and putting Leto's faith to the test. But while faith might move mountains, it won't necessarily move hearts and minds--and before this story is finished, Leto and Risa will find out more about the limits of power, faith and appetite than they ever wanted to know."--P.4 cover.
