Ben Shepherd: Blood Drunk, Gebunden

Blurb

Brutal gangsters, shadowy organisations and bloody vampires. A gritty pub crawl from the blood-soaked streets of South London to the elite hallways of vampire royalty. Blood Drunk is a pitch-black urban fantasy for fans of Empire of the Vampire and Slow Horses.

Freddie Burns just wants ten pints, a brawl, and the chance to take over his uncle's fading gangland empire.

But when a routine hit goes tits up, Freddie discovers a new kind of organised crime - one where vampires are real and monsters hide in plain sight. Good thing he has a nasty talent for giving vampires a good kicking - them, and anyone else who looks at him funny.

Freddie's power to rip magical strength from the death of living things drags him to a world he never knew existed. Now he's staring down shadowy organisations, a magical underworld, gruesome vampire initiations and a blood-chilling covenant.

It might be up to Freddie to save the world - or at least not wreck it entirely. He just needs a drink and a smoke first.
