San Francisco, California - Present Day

Sandra is pregnant. That is nothing unusual, except that she is 100 years old and a vampire. But, there is something very special about Travis, her young lover, and their child will be even more special. Fortunately there is a doctor who treats vampires.

Not everyone in the extensive vampire community is pleased about Sandra and Travis. René is the Ancient who 'made' Sandra and he was not happy when she broke free of his control. Just how far will he go to obtain revenge?

THE ANCIENT'S RETURN is a tightly-woven, intriguing premise. The writing is brisk, descriptive, and spare, cramming a great deal of information into a short story. Sandra and Travis generate enough heat to turn seawater to steam. There are several vital secondary characters who are part of keeping Sandra and Travis safe. With THE ANCIENT'S RETURN, Savannah Black continues her interesting take on vampires that began with VIXEN OF THE NIGHT. I recommend both.
