THE SUNLIGHT SLAYINGS is the second story in the OLIVER NOCTURNE series.

It's been a few weeks since Emalie has distanced herself from Oliver, assuming he's the one responsible for Dean's death. But out of nowhere, Dean shows back up in Oliver's life. But Dean is now a zombie!

Everyone knows that the person who kills someone is the only one that can raise a zombie. Well, everyone assumes that Oliver is the one that killed Dean, but since he's positive he's not the one responsible, the two have to figure out who is Dean's master.

Besides trying to determine who the mystery master is, Dean and Oliver have to find Emalie and convince her Oliver isn't the guilty person. In their quest to reach Emalie, vampire youth are being slain by sunlight. Oliver learns that only a very skilled Orani would be able to do such a deed. Oliver knows that Dead Desiree in the underworld thinks Emalie is an Orani. But Oliver can't believe that Emalie would go so far as to try to kill him, because she believes he's responsible for Dean's death.

With wraiths, powerful magic, sunlight spells, and Valentine's Day fast approaching, Oliver and Dean have their work cut out for them. Though told by his parents to stay indoors and let the adults figure out what is going on, Oliver doesn't listen to them and gets caught up in all the drama that is unfolding. Dean and Oliver are just as determined to prove Emalie isn't responsible for the slayings as much as they want to prove Oliver isn't the one responsible for Dean's death.

Mr. Emerson writes a wonderful sequel to THE VAMPIRE'S PHOTOGRAPH. The action and adventure is just as contagious as the first one, if not more so. Oliver discovers some of the secrets surrounding his past, but he is still unsure of who he is or what he is destined for.

Now, if the reader is caught up in the adventures of Oliver Nocturne, they'll have to wait for the next installment, BLOOD TIES, due out November 2008. ( )

Second in the Oliver Nocturne series. It is 3 months since Oliver "killed" Dean in the gymnasium and he is a big hero at school and a shining light in his parents' eyes ( much to his brother Bane's disgust). But Oliver knows he didn't kill Dean and when Emaline starts appearing in his dreams trying to tell him he did, Oliver knows he has to see her to let her know the truth. But someone has been breaking into his family's crypt and Oliver discovers it is Dean, raised as a zombie. This complicates matters as it adds weight to the theory that Oliver killed Dean, as everyone believes O raised D to be his servant.

But these problems pale into insignificance when someone starts attacking young vampires with a weapon that appears to shoot sunlight - thus turning the vampire to dust! Oliver has a sneaking suspicion that it is Emaline trying to kill him, bent on avenging Dean's death. However, it may turn out that Emaline herself is in danger - what is the shadow that seems to follow her everywhere?"

There is also, of course, the nagging feeling that all this has something to do with a prophecy he must fulfill to free all vampires from their prison on Earth by opening Nexia's Gate.

Favorite part: When oliver goes to the Library and consults all the different Ancient codex vampires for information - very cool. ( )
