Taste the Terror …

Cade Colter’s world is coming apart. Stalked by a ruthless crew of fanatical assassins determined to silence him, he lives in fear, haunted by grief and the guilt of a tormented past. But even as he struggles with his own demons, a new tide of terror is rising -- an ancient darkness more dangerous than any vampire.

A malignant presence stalks the rain-soaked streets. Cloaked in widow’s black, she comes with the fog, her poison rotting victims from within, leaving nothing behind but hollowed corpses and the echoes of their final, desperate screams.

First comes the hum of a thousand black wasps. Then a suffocating dread -- a cold so deep it freezes the lungs and stills the heart. She emerges from the mist, her face veiled, dress trailing like funeral crepe, her eyes reflecting only the void. And now, she’s set her sights on Cade, and survival means coming face-to-face with an evil that’s older than death -- and twice as hungry.

Critic reviews

“With THE BLACK WASP, Alistair Cross delivers an exciting new creature to the pantheon of monsters. His Black Wasp is ageless yet ancient, horrifying yet alluring, capable of terrifying humans and vampires alike. THE BLACK WASP is like nothing else and she’s here to stay.” --Tamara Thorne, bestselling author of Haunted, Brimstone, and Eternity

Another fantastic story in the Vampires of Crimson Cove by Alistair Cross and brilliantly narrated by Jamison Walker.
So many exciting scenes, filled with addictive characters, good Vampires vs bad Vampires, mystical magic, flesh eating wasps, vampire hunters and much more! This is a story you won't want to put down. If you're a fan of Vampires, horror, and damn good writing, this is the series for you! And hopefully, there's another book in the horizon.

This series is probably one my favorites, I have completely enjoyed the whole series and it sounds like there will be more. It has all the action and steam you need to keep you completely enthralled. It took me two days of constant listening and I still want to hear it again so much happens. Love the series!!
