About this listen
Boxed set of the first three Vampire Crimes Special Unit mystery novels, featuring characters created by J.R. Rain in the Vampire for Hire universe, including:
MOON HUNT (Book 1)
Only a vampire can solve these crimes—an undead private eye named Samantha Moon.
Private investigator Sam Moon is working undercover for the Fullerton Police Department’s new top-secret Vampire Crimes Special Unit (VCSU).
With the increasing number of supernatural-type crimes in and around Orange County, Detective Sherbet needs Samantha’s special talents to help solve and prosecute the real and growing threats to the citizens of Fullerton.
Sam’s first case for the VCSU threatens to expose her life as a vampire.
When a 200-year-old mummified corpse turns up on the grounds of an Orange County mission with a note addressed to Sam, she needs to protect herself, as well as solve this case before something worse happens.
The more Sam digs into the case, the more evidence she discovers of the mission’s grisly history and scandalous past.
But to solve the mystery in the present, can Samantha Moon solve the mystery of the past?
MOON GONE (Book 2)
Private investigator Samantha Moon is working undercover for the Fullerton Police Department’s new top-secret Vampire Crimes Special Unit (VCSU).
Children are disappearing right where they stand.
When four local kids vanish into thin air, Sam suspects a registered sex offender of heinous crimes. But the deeper that Sam and her partner, Brent Cole, investigate, the more perplexing the mystery becomes.
And when children begin disappearing internationally—and with the same modus operandi—Sam knows that a powerful paranormal enemy is behind the disappearances.
In order to prevent more kidnappings, Sam sets herself up as bait for a trap. But a leap of faith launches her into the unknown with dire consequences.
As she faces a new breed of supernatural henchmen, she must battle a diabolical villain who threatens to turn a medieval legend into a modern catastrophe.
Will a dark and disturbing history repeat itself? Can Sam save the children before it’s too late? Will she ever see her own children again?
MOON CRIMES (Book 3)
Sam Moon investigates the strange phenomena of prisoners recommitting the crimes they were locked up for—all while never leaving their cells.
When a suspect fits the description of an inmate who’s in solitary confinement, Sam correctly deduces foul play.
But the deeper that Sam and her partner, Brent Cole, investigate, the more perplexing the mystery becomes.
And when Sam is threatened by a civilian prison worker, she has no choice but to delve even deeper into the prison's past—and its warden...and uncovers something evil preying upon the inmates.
Sam is about to face-off against something powerful, angry...and desperate.
Luckily, she doesn’t scare easily.

Story
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Two astronomers have detected a strange, pulsing signal from deep space. Within hours, the US government goes into lockdown, restricting airspace and scrubbing scientific data. Was the signal an intercepted communication revealing alarming plans for an enemy’s military strike? Or has humanity at long last found proof of extraterrestrial life?

Story
Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story
Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Story
It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.

Could of been awesome! The premise was a great idea
The virtual voice is a bit odd to adapt to. I think this book would be better appreciated and better received if the virtual voice were less "halting & hesitant" & if everything sounded less like a question.
It leaves me feeling like it was written by a student longing to "become a professional writer" but not quite "there" yet.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
