mike_brough's review against another edition
3.0
Not one of FGC's best but still worth an hour of your time.
The hero is slightly too goody-goody and the Jericho Society's appearance feels slightly gratuitous but the story is compelling and the sense of time and place is spot on. This would make an excellent Twilight Zone-style episode.
I've read a fair number of his books now and would observe that Mr Cottam has carved himself a niche in creating believable, desirable vamps. I suspect he and I may have had similar formative experiences when it comes to women!
Next up for me is his Dark Resurrection - even when he writes a middling story, he still keeps you coming back for the next one. Maybe 3 stars is a bit parsimonious.

OK, but not his best work
OK, but not his best work. As others have said, it might have been better expanded onto a full-length novel.
