13 Bullets (by David Wellington)

13 BULLETS by David Wellington (unabridged) is presented by Blackstone Audio and comes with what is perhaps the best audiobook app available (see FEATURES, below).

The official reports say the last vampire was killed by a fed named Arkeley in the ‘80s. But tonight, it looks otherwise. When state trooper Laura Caxton calls the FBI for help in the middle of the night, Arkeley gets the assignment.

Self-contained, this audiobook app is perfect for your commute, on a trip, or while relaxing. Based on a library-quality recording, this app was built especially for your iPhone and iPod Touch. No unreadable text, no endless scrolling on a tiny screen. The audio is of higher-than-normal quality, making for a great listening experience that will not tire your ears or grate on your nerves.

It was professionally recorded by Blackstone Audios Earphones® Award-winning narrator Bernadette Dunne. You are not buying yet another amateur or volunteer narration. No clicks, background noises, throat clearing, mispronunciations, tinny voices or monotones will be found here.

All the official reports say they are dead—extinct since the late ’80s, when a fed named Arkeley nailed the last vampire in a fight that nearly killed him. But Arkeley knows what most people don’t: there’s one left. In an abandoned asylum she’s rotting, plotting, and biding her time in a way that only the undead can. When State Trooper Laura Caxton calls the FBI looking for help in the middle of the night, it’s Arkeley who gets the assignment. Caxton is out of her league on this case and more than a little afraid, but the fed made it plain that there’s only one way out. The worst thing is the feeling that the vampires want more than just her blood; they want her for a reason . . . one she can’t guess . . . a reason her sphinxlike partner knows but won’t say . . . a reason she has to find out—or die trying. Now there are only thirteen bullets between the living and the damned.
