Death of an Immortal
A vampire hides from enemies while seeking redemption after killing an innocent woman.
Terrill, the most feared vampire, disappears to avoid his enemy's wrath. He vows never to kill again but breaks this promise by taking a young woman's life. Instead of running away, he tries to fix his mistake. His efforts fail, and he becomes prey for both human hunters and vampire rivals. He hides in caves and woodsheds, relying on the mercy of downtrodden people. One girl holds power over him despite having every reason to hate him. The story examines guilt, survival, and the cost of immortality. McGeary uses this premise to create a tense narrative about an undead creature losing his status. The plot moves through hiding places and moral dilemmas rather than epic battles.
This 2019 release from Dragon Moon Press fits into the modern horror genre. It contrasts with romantic vampire fiction by offering a darker, more violent perspective. The work appeals to readers who prefer traditional horror elements over contemporary supernatural romance trends.
