Blood song

No talking, stay out of the shadows, don't go out at night, survive... Fin Vee is the chief hangman's daughter at the Church of Hangmen. Everyone has high hopes for her to continue the witch ritual that keeps the Berkano vampires away. When she steps on stage to sacrifice the little girl with the dazzling blue eyes, and doesn't, the Berkano come fast and furious to demand their sacrifice. The only safe place is within the walls of the Church, but the Church casts Fin out, leaving her with the annoyingly silent Hendry to guide her. The Berkano only speak telepathically, so speaking out loud in the city's streets is a death sentence. But as Fin discovers the truth about her beloved city and her Church, she finds she has a lot to say. And so do her new allies: a band of cowboy witches intent on overthrowing the Berkano, whatever the risk may be. Even if that risk is death. Blood Song is created by Lindsey R. Loucks, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

He bit down on his lower lip, the slightest curl pinching the corners. "Do you watch people when you sing to them?"

I leaned back in my chair with a frown. This wasn't the direction I'd expected the conversation to take. "I watch my dad mostly. If he's crying, that usually means I'm doing something right. He always said I could move even those with the coldest of hearts to tears."
