Titan Books presents Angel of Vengeance, the original never-before-released novel that inspired the vampire TV series “Moonlight.”
Written by Trevor Munson, the co-creator, writer and producer of “Moonlight” (the CBS series which attracted 7 million viewers and still retains a loyal, devoted fan base and cult following), Angel of Vengeance offers a new twist on the classic Dracula vampire tale and blends it with Raymond Chandler’s hardboiled P.I. detective fiction.
Munson, who admits to a long love affair with vampires, explains it was his aim to create a story with a new and fresh way in to the vampire mythos. “Blending the two genres I loved best by creating a blood-sucking Philip Marlowe, who was turned in the forties, and continued on as a living anachronism in the present day, seemed like it held a lot of potential to be that story” – a story, as it turned out, that C BS loved … and after creating a lighter, more romantic version … ultimately hit the TV network even before it was published. Now, for the first time, fans will have the chance to read Munson’s original- a much darker tale than that depicted in “Moonlight.”
Angel of Vengeance: L.A.-based P.I. and vampire Mick Angel has been hired by a beautiful red-headed burlesque dancer to find her missing sister. The apparently simple case of a teenage runaway is soon complicated by drug dealers, persistent cops, murder, and Mick’s own past. Mick must learn the hard way what every vampire should know – nothing stays buried forever, especially not the past.
