A place from which there is no escape… no matter how hard Violet tries.

Violet and Kaspar surrender to a passion that transcends their separate worlds – but it’s a passion that comes at a price… Dinner With A Vampire, formally known as Dinner With A Vampire.

Illumini takes you on a wild, fast-paced ride across a dystopian near future world. An action packed sci-fi novel filled with dark government forces, a young couple desperately on the run, sinister corporations run amok, genetic engineering, and a contagious virus that will set us all free. An action-thriller that will keep you turning pages. It draws you in from the very first chapter with an original weave of current events bound by dynamic characters and a riveting pace that keeps you enthralled throughout. A lucid and intelligent story that asks the big questions. This is not a story about a virus, but about the decisions we make today and the world that will result tomorrow. A pair of scientists unwittingly discover a top secret clinical trial testing an intelligence gene that threatens to change us in profound ways. Atlas Genetics, a leading biotech company practicing innovative gene therapy, has a problem. The military have taken over the research putting Atlas profits in jeopardy. The executives devise a sinister plan to make the vector contagious, spreading the intelligence genes across the entire population so they can sell an enzyme that will trigger the genes in those infected. A young, on again, off again couple are lab technicians working for Atlas until they are framed for the contagious plague sweeping across the planet, sending them on a wild chase to stop the virus from altering the balance of power in our society. While the world slumbers fearfully under an oppressive control they realize the potential of the virus to awaken us all, and change everything that has turned dark and ominous in our future.

Fifteen year-old Maggie arrives in London on the run from her humdrum suburban life, determined to make it big in show business. For more than thirty years she is exploited by both men and the media. She struggles against endless set-backs and disappointments, always remaining optimistic, always believing that this time her big break has come. Then, when most of us would have given up all hope, the celebrity circus rockets her to bizarre and unexpected pinnacles of fame. Starting in 1970 Maggie de Beer’s journey mirrors the rise of celebrity culture and the growth of the media which ruthlessly created it, exploiting and destroying the lives of girls like Maggie who willingly offered themselves up, happy to make any amount of personal sacrifices in exchange for a chance to live the dream. She is determined to make herself “interesting” and only when she finally achieves her goal, at enormous personal cost, does she finally discover, under the full glare of the media spotlight, that the family she was running away from was never as humdrum as she had believed. This is the story of a woman who just wanted to be recognised and loved by the public. www.MaggiedeBeer.com
