At the center of everything, stood a Gate.
In human years Oliver Nocturne is 13 years old, but he's really a 63 year old vampire. A real vampire, like Dracula. He lives in Seattle with his parents and older brother in an underground crypt. His life seems a lot like human teens; he attends vampire school, he eats sugary, processed foods, and he hangs out with vampire friends. On the surface it looks like Oliver is a normal teenage vampire.
But he's anything but normal.
Oliver meets two human teenagers, Emalie and Dean. Emalie works for the school newspaper, and she has taken several photographs of Oliver. Where Oliver should be in the photos is a blurry spot, and ignoring his father's warning, Oliver wants to find way to be in photos.
"They're dangerous for you, son."
Oliver is the only teenage kid he knows that has to go see a doctor for yearly checkups. And at his most recent check-up, an ancient vampire who not only recognizes Oliver and calls him by name, he tells Oliver his destiny.
"Don't take your destiny lightly, Oliver. You are the one who can open the Gate."
After visiting Dead Désirée, Oliver learns that Emalie is an Orani, "one who sees." He receives an amulet of Ephyra for protection. He also learns the truth about his parents and where he came from.
The Vampire's Photograph is an exciting read about a teenage vampire living in Seattle. If you like action, you'll enjoy this series! I can't wait to read the next five books!
