Piper Maitland Guest Post: Vampires and science

When I began writing Acquainted With the Night, I wasn’t surprised when the main character’s uncle, Nigel Clifford, turned out to be Britain’s most beloved “tomb raider.” Archeology served as the perfect metaphor for secrets that had been pushed into dark places.
