In Maggie Shayne's vampire world certain humans are called the Chosen, which means that they carry a rare blood antigen necessary for transformation to the vampire state. These Chosen are secretly guarded by vampires, to which they have a psychic link. A government group that knows about vampires and the Chosen is the CIA's Division of Paranormal Investigations (DPI). The agents of DPI hunt these individuals so that their scientists can study them. The methodology used by the researchers is far from humane although the books carry no graphic descriptions. This is after all a romance series and includes some steamy sex scenes. Characters from the various books tend to turn up at some point in all of the novels. (See also the novella Beyond Twilight #575.) |
