SABELLA
or
The Blood Stone

A Science Fiction Vampire Novel

On the pink planet of Novo Mars, Sabella, the beautiful young recluse, lives out her uneasy daytime life behind drawn blinds. And at night she feeds on the blood of deer. After what has happened before, she no longer wants—or dares—to take the blood of men.

But something, it seems, is intent on throwing Sabella back into her former existence of danger and despair. Forcing her first to consume the handsome young stranger, Sand, and then to confront Sand's invincible and terrifying brother, Jace, the avenging angel.

When predator becomes prey, some kind of death must end it-And only blood will answer for blood.
