The book begins between the two separate points of view of Sam and First Lord Azzuri, who each offer a unique perspective into different vampire hierarchies. First Lord Azzuri is at the top of the food chain (pun intended) as a vampire who gets the very best of the blood and all the other benefits that come with his position, whereas Sam is at the bottom, receiving the dregs of their society which provides nothing more than sustenance.
I loved the dichotomy between Sylvia and Lorelai, Lorelai being the grumpy main point of view character while Sylvia is her academic rival and of course, romantic interest who is pure sunshine and loved by all.
Olivia, the main character, is a podcaster who usually researches true crime, and winds up on a cruise with her sister she has been estranged from so they can reconnect. Characters in thrillers who run true crime podcasts has apparently become a recent draw of mine as I can’t seem to get enough of these.
