Reseña del libro "Late Bite: Vampire on Trial (The Toronto Vampire Chronicles) (en Inglés)"
A series of Torontonians assaulted in their homes sends a wave of panic across the city. Anxieties soar when police capture a suspect the media proclaims is "a real vampire." The prisoner identifies himself as Dragul Mangorian, the sole survivor of the Homo Sanguinus, a once-mighty subspecies that split from humanity 30,000 years ago. Mangorian is 6'-6", thin and pale as a cadaver, has fiery yellow eyes, and admits to using three-inch fangs to suck blood from his victims. When rumours race through the legal community that, unarmed, Mangorian nearly took out a full squadron of tactical cops, the usual public defenders all come down with the flu. Mangorian's defence falls to down-on-his-luck lawyer Al Hamblyn. After harnessing his fears, Hamblyn sees the case as the opportunity he needs to revive his career and win back the love of his life and reconnect with his son. News of a "vampire" in police custody attracts media from around the world for the Trial of the Century. Toronto, a city renowned for inclusiveness, finds itself at the epicentre of a media circus and an ethical debate whether human rights apply to someone who's not quite human. The battleground for Late Bite is a vampire story starts in a courtroom before morphing into a psychological thriller with dramatic twists, humour, and violent battle scenes. This is not a book for 'sparkly vampire' fans or the faint at heart. Mangorian is not Bram Stoker's supernatural Dracula. He has not been infected by The Strain. He is not a sexy vampire from Twilight. Mangorian and Late Bite have been described as a "pathbreaking" departure from the traditional vampire tale.The sole surviving Sanguinus is a fearsome, dark, and yet charming anti-hero whose twisted morality has been compared to Dr. Hannibal Lecter in Silence of the Lambs.
