About this listen
An all-new collection of eight "Vampire for Hire" short stories featuring everyone's favorite vampire detective, Samantha Moon! It’s all inside, including:
Vampire Requiem - Samantha Moon gets up close and personal with her dead ex-husband’s mistress, Nancy, who might be a woman who knows too much.
Moon Love - Sam and Kingsley Fulcrum set their sights on a romantic weekend getaway to Big Bear, California, only to find themselves on the hunt for a runaway boy.
Moon Musings - Sam is back and... blogging? Turns out the vampire mama has a lot to say on the subject of life, death, and fighting demons. And what better outlet than in an anonymous blog? For those who want to know what's really on a vampire's mind...
Moon Memories - He's a new client with lots of questions. She's a vampire feeling oddly chatty. Is he ready for the life changing answers?
Moon Quiz - It's a quiz in a magazine, meant to entertain and perhaps kill some time in a dentist's waiting room. But what happens when a real vampire takes the same quiz?
Moon Beast - Something's leaving behind mysterious footprints at a Southern California park. And not just any footprints. Massive, bloody prints...
Vampire Widow - Tammy Moon hears a distant, telepathic cry for help...and convinces her mother, Samantha Moon, to go on a road trip deep into the heart of the Mojave desert to help something ancient...and massive.
Moon Maze - A young man hires Sam to look into the origins of a childhood monster. With the help of her real-life werewolf boyfriend, Sam digs into the mystery...and follows the trail of clues deep underground.
What readers are saying:
★★★★★ “Sam Moon is much more than a paranormal P.I. I’ve been reading J.R. Rain’s books about Samantha Moon for years now. This collection of eight short stories is a like little Twilight Zone episodes in her life. You never quite know what you’re going to get, but you can be sure that it will be insightful and entertaining. These stories can be read as standalone tales but I recommend the whole series because it’s so well written.” —Amazon review

Rain’s stories about her are quite fun to read!” —Amazon review

Samantha Moon figured her daughter's birthday would be nice and normal, not usher in a magical apocalypse. Amid the frequent chaos in her life, Sam has learned to take comfort in the boring moments. She's one of the few people who doesn't mind a long day in the office. So when Paxton's fourteenth birthday rolled around, she expected it would be cute, innocent and full of unicorn-themed stuff. An actual unicorn, though? Not so much. What's an immortal psychic vampire to do when a creature of fable decides to crash in their backyard? Sam has no idea.

When Samantha Moon is hired by a film crew to help hunt for the most elusive creature of them all, she’s pretty sure they have the wrong person. Turns out this is a super well-funded expedition, and the eccentric backer is sparing no expense, including hiring, among dozens of other specialists, a private investigator—someone trained to find the missing. And there is nothing more missing than Bigfoot. The logic almost makes sense to Sam, and the money is right. In the least, the vampire private eye is intrigued. After all, even among her fellow supernaturals, the creature known as ...
