Saltwater Vampires

Beschreibung

Shortlisted, NSW Premier's Literary Awards for Young Adult fiction Holidays in the coastal village of Rocky Head should mean surfing, dodging tourists and partying at the local music festival. But when Jamie Mackie is savagely bitten in the surf by a friend, he realises things are going to be different this summer. The Mutineers are in town, a coven of brutal vampires created in the shipwreck of the Batavia, four hundred years ago. If their plans succeed, nobody in Rocky Head will survive to see out the new year. A thrilling tale of surfing, the supernatural and one of the bloodiest incidents in Australian maritime history, by the award-winning author of Raw Blue.
