Dark Vampire Horror by Kathleen Tierney

Siobhan Quinn is a monster hunter for hire - she takes out rampaging vampires, werewolves, ghouls, and the like. A junkie with a tragic past, Siobhan will do anything for her next fix - until she comes out on the wrong end of a fight with a werewolf and is infected with the loup virus. To add insult to injury, an angry vampire changes her into one of its own kind, making her an abomination called a 'werepire.' An offhand comment by her vampire 'mother' tells her that her change was not by accident, and this sets Siobhan on a mission to find out why she was twice-damned, and by whose orders.

Blood Oranges by Kathleen Tierney is a grown-up supernatural mystery with an extremely unreliable narrator. Siobhan Quinn resists telling the whole truth and sometimes embellishes her story, and her numerous asides help to expand the world that Tierney has created (and can sometimes detract from it). The author is also careful to distinguish her book from other supernatural stories, but does include nods to other works. This paranormal adventure is not for the faint of heart, either, with plenty of gore, cursing, and adult situations. Fans of Laurell K Hamilton's Anita Blake series will find much to like in this supernatural horror story, which is the first in a planned series.
