Description
Jago could feel the teeth sink into his skin. It burnt like a fire of molten lead that trickled through his veins.
Jago Harker is trying to adjust to his new life at Hawks Moor. But when news reaches the house of a madman on the loose killing Vampyres, he knows it's only a matter of time before they come for his companion, Biatra. As the Second World War rages all around, Vampyre is set against Vampyre when two factions of the ancient cult clash in violence. And as he prepares to go to war with his greatest enemy yet, Jago will soon discover the truth about his own identity in a world where true power lies in the hands of the blood-drinkers and where, even in love, no one can be trusted.

Review:
GP Taylor’s latest children’s fantasy and second in his Vampyre Labyrinth trilogy is about Blaine a vampire hunter, and the silent and suspicious occupant of this grim castle is a vampire. A vicious fight soon ensues….
The book is set in Whitby, where we encounter Jago Harker, hero of Red Eye, the first novel in the series. In Red Eye, the newly orphaned teenager was packed on a train to the north to escape the London blitz, arriving in a sinister, spooky Whitby where he knew nothing and no one.
As Dust Blood begins, Jago is adjusting to a new life at Hawks Moor. But the vampires are afoot, Biatra is in danger – and Jago discovers that no one can be trusted. The second novel in the series is even more frightening than the first.
