Abstract
Night Fever
is a novel-in-progress, satirizing vampire stories, crime fiction, and the disco era. It tells the story of Serena, a centuries-old vampire with an attitude, who returns to her old haunts in the fall of 1979 to hunt down new prey--the free love ways of the pre-AIDS era providing a perfect opportunity to take strangers home for dinner. Complicating matters are the appearance of Vaughn, an old friend who carries a torch for Serena, and who now runs a disco, and Detective Bronski, a close-to-retirement police detective who is on the trail of another kind of killer while training a new partner, who himself runs afoul to Serena and finds himself with a curious aversion to sunlight.
