And at each of his gigs he is visited by Stack and Mary who are the only remaining vampires from that faithful night. Their lives were spared as long as they promised to not heard Sammy and surprisingly, even though they gave in to their evil side, they kept their word. But when they're not visiting Sammy they go out into the night terrorizing unsuspecting victims either sucking their blood dry or turning them into vampires. The heroine of the story will be Sammy's granddaughter, Alicia, a loner in an estranged relationship with her parents who is not into blues music but loves reading vampire stories.
