The Incapacitated Vampyre

The Incapacitated Vampyre is a fictional Gothic fantasy thriller set in London. The beautiful, bright and charismatic Simone is attacked by a vampire who, believing her to be dead, throws her from a seven-storey car park after the attack. But he is mistaken, for Simone is still alive. When she hits the ground her back breaks and as she lies dying, her turning begins, thus sealing her fate to emerge on the other side of death as a unique, dark being who is both powerful and powerless: a paralysed vampire. In order to survive as one who cannot hunt in the conventional way, Simone uses her superior agility of mind to recruit a very special group of enablers – seven in number, mortal and immortal. So successful is she that, ten years after her turning, she holds court as an all-powerful, wealthy vampire in complete control of her living death. That is, until the day Thomas walks into her life: charming, lovable, mortal Thomas, he becomes her everything. Her love for him and her urge to protect him will distract her from the control so essential to her survival. Her band of interconnected vampire and human enablers see the weakness in her and with it, their chance to rebel.
