by Rhiannon Frater
ebook
Published April 12th 2013
Episode 3:

A mysterious new vampire appears in the life of the Socolis. Is he friend or foe?

In Darkness We Must Abide is the epic saga of one young woman caught in the dangerous world of the creatures of the night.

Already living in the shadows due to her albinism, Vanora is just a little girl when her older brother inadvertently unleashes a terrible evil from the family +crypt that changes their lives forever.

As she grows up in a world where beautiful deadly beings hunt by night, one captures her eye and her heart. Yet, can she trust the mysterious Armando? For there is a powerful entity plotting to claim her when she reaches adulthood in order to fulfill an ancient prophecy, and her enemy has enveloped her in a web of deceit, casting doubt on all she believes to be true. Soon, she will have to fight not only to save those she loves, but also for her very soul.

Rhiannon Frater delivers a chilling adventure once again with this multi-part epic serial with a dynamic cast, old school vampires, bloody action, a smoldering forbidden love, and a terrifying villain set against the backdrop of a modern day vampire war.

Each episode will be between 10,000 and 20,000 words with new installments being published every 2 to 3 weeks.

Episode 1: Death Comes Home
Roman Socoli inadvertently releases a terrible evil when he has his Romanian ancestors entombed on his estate in Houston, Texas.

Episode 2: Death in the Shadows
Death has claimed a Socoli, but the family curse will not allow him to stay dead. Vanora and Alisha must battle the creature that stole their brother's life while fearing the possible resurrection of Roman.


Armando Armando Armando!! You gorgeous man you! And on top of how beautiful you are we find out this episode that you are also the protector of Vanora...That just makes you MORE dreamy!! When I picture Armando he's tall, dark, mysterious, and handsomely beautiful!

In this episode, we watch as Armando starts to work his way into the Socoli family. He begins by spending time with Roman and as Roman becomes more relaxed with him he starts to let him spend time with his sisters also. But Roman never lets him alone with them in the beginning. Eventually, he starts to feel comfortable and you see him loosen up. Soon Armando is welcomed as a friend in their home. You know that Armando has a hidden agenda but we have to wait to see exactly what that is.
I am so hooked on these novellas. I hate the fact we are having to wait for each episode. It's like watching a TV show and having to wait each week for the next one.
5 Stars!!

MY REVIEW OF THE 1ST EPISODE: In Darkness We Must Abide 


Rhiannon is killing me writing this book in episodes. I feel like my world was placed on a shelf and the amazing world of In Darkness We Must Abide has totally taken control. This world of gothic horror, this family and the mysteries they hold are making my head spin. 

In this episode we find Roman, Alisha, and Vanora dealing with the horror that had escaped the coffin and the changes that have come with it. Rhiannon did an AWESOME job AGAIN of the story playing out in my head like I was watching this as a movie (which it needs to be!).  I love the way Rhiannon is writing Alisha and Vanora  as strong, courageous, and an amazing young women. Even Vanora as a child is brave and strong in this episode. And Roman as the protective older brother makes me smile when I read the things he says and does. I just love him. And in this episode I felt like we got to know Alisha a little better and I really like her. 

I would love to tell you every detail of this story because it is so great. But I need to leave a little for you to read. Just remember once you start it's hard to wait for Rhiannon's next episode....it's killing me!!!!FASTER RHIANNON FASTER!!!! :)


Obviously 5 STARS!!! It's RHIANNON!

OH MY FREAKIN' GOSH!!  This book, novella WHATEVER it is was AWESOME!! And I am NOT so patiently waiting on the next episode....**clears throat** RHIANNON!!This is the first in a series of episodes by Rhiannon Frater.  I am and have been since I read the entire As The World Dies series a total Rhiannon fan. If there EVER has been an author that can totally draw me into a story and not let me go until the very last period it's Rhiannon. And BTW if you haven't experienced the Rhiannon love yet, you can start with this book because the story is heart gripping and totally intriguing!

Verona is just a little girl when her brother brings the coffins of their dead relatives to America from Romania. Some thing very evil was let out of one of the coffins. And as I sit here writing this, I can vividly see Verona, Roman, and Alisha because they are permanently ingrained into my mind. The events that unfold from the arrival of the coffins to the last words in the novel left me spellbound! And that's all I can say... You have got to read this first episode of the In Darkness We Must Abide series and see for yourself!



What was your most spine chilling moment?

Well that's a little difficult since my "spine was chillin" the entire time! But I would have to say when Verona opened her eyes to the creature standing above her.....I wanted to throw my Kindle and hide under the covers. That was really creepy!!!!!
