Haunted by the catastrophe that tore his city apart ten years ago, Coast Guard veteran, Virgil Lafleur, struggles daily with the hardships of a post-Katrina New Orleans.But when his younger brother's murder leads him into a vortex of intrigue, corruption, and violence, Virgil becomes obsessed with bringing the killers to justice and exposing the horrific secret hiding beneath the Mississippi.
"This is an exciting, well thought out and extremely well executed story that will keep you guessing and coming back for more." - Reading with a Flightring "The BloodThirsty series is a perfect example of the high quality of work that is done outside the juggernauts of Marvel and DC." - Pop Culture Uncovered "Blood Thirsty has it all shadowy organizations, human sacrifice, and a protagonist who in my head is played by a slightly less bulked up Dwayne The Rock Johnson." - The Pullbox "An outstanding job of rendering New Orleans in all its mystery and noir-ish glamour." - Geek Mundo "An excellent beginning to a promising story, supported by extraordinary illustrations, makes for a killer debut." - Graphic Policy"
