Rescued from the malicious hands of the monks at the Monastery of San Leyre years ago, undercover operative and vampire, Monique Merchant refuses to return to the place of her imprisonment and torture. Struggling with PTSD, she stays behind when the State Department asks the Vamp Squad to investigate an outbreak of drug related deaths at the monastery's elite school. When a new doctor from the CDC shows up to help research the drug and produce an antidote, Monique resents having to pretend she is human and work with the geeky scientist. But Dr. Seizemore's genius and Monique's genetics may hold the key to finding the antidote and saving the children who continue to die. When a new group of children sicken, Monique must find the strength to return to the monastery with her scientist to solve the mystery of the drug, and confront her growing feelings for the human. Percy Seizemore, a brilliant genetic engineer and pharmacologist, has no idea he will be working with vampires in his temporary assignment at the top-secret base in northern Maine. As they rush against time to find the answers to this drug related threat, visions of his gorgeous French assistant invade his dreams and fire his fantasies. That is, until he finds out who... and what he is sharing his lab with! When his scientific world, and the world according to Dracula collide, he is shaken to the core. Everything he knows and understands is turned upside down, including his heart. And what is this strange connection between this dangerous drug and Monique, herself? Join Miriam Matthews in her third book of the Vamp Squad Series, THE SECRETS OF SAN LEYRE as Monique learns to trust her own strength and the true value of love!
