TEMPTATION (feature) (2009)

“Temptation is a dark and harrowing vampire tale set within the beating heart of London. The East End has become the hunting ground for a breed of bloodthirsty female vampires (Reena Lalbihari – The Day of the Triffids, Laura Lagercrantz – Goal! III, Ellie Jeffreys – Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll, Nowhere Boy) led by the mysterious Aurelie (Rachel Waters)…

“Probably pick of this little coven is Catherine Taylor’s Temptation, a female-skewing, London-set story of a ladette (Caroline Haines) saved from a rapist minicab driver by a glam, moody vampire (Rachel Waters). It has more lipgloss lesbian fang-flashers, but offers a reasonable blend of chills and charm”. (Kim Newman, Empire Magazine, January 2011)
