About The Tale of the Body Thief

Miami, 1992, "city of water, city of speed," tropical garden of a city where corruption pulses beneath the lush surface. Miami, the perfect city for a vampire. Yet Lestat—hero, rock star, incorrigible seducer of millions, the most powerful and sensual vampire of them all—prowls this savage garden in desperate N. misery. Restlessly pursuing the mystery of his dark existence across time and space, Stalked in his turn by the only creature who can grant his desire, Lestat—against all the rules, all urgent warnings—rashly seizes it. IVhile the Body Thief, cloaked in his immortal powers, lays a trail of carnage across America and the Caribbean, Lestat is abandoned to the long-forgotten clumsiness, the unassuageable hungers, the fragility of human life, to discover that a mortal body is no fit receptacle for a vampire's soul .. Rejected by the other vampires—by Marius, by Claudia, even by his beloved Louis—a torment- ed and appallingly vulnerable Lestat is forced to seek human help to recover his vampire self. Help he abuses unforgiveably when, in a mesmeriz- ing climax, he succumbs to the basest urge in any nature ... Electrifying, erotic, terrifying—the fourth book in the Vampire Chronicles is as rich, as violent, as sensual, as the three runaway best-sellers that preceded it. Anne Rice casts a spell like no other writer: The Tale of the Body Thief unlocks the door to entrancement. --front flap
