Martin had very little to live for. Every day of his mundane life bled into the next as the sole HR rep for a floundering department store.
A wife who had little patience for him and a four-year-old daughter who preferred to spend time with her imaginary friend made his home life just as dreary.
Finding himself with a rare weekend to himself, it's perfect timing for an invitation for after-work drinks with a co-worker who actually remembered his name and a group of fellow employees.
Instead of the evening of bonding fun he had hoped for, he has a chance encounter with a commiserating stranger who sends his life barreling off course. When the drinks flow, misunderstandings lead to changes that cannot be undone.
Waking up the next day as a vampire ends up being much worse than the hangover he expected. Even more so when he finds his undead life is much the same as when he had a pulse.
The only difference is instead of dreary days, he's stuck trying to balance life and death between sunset and sunrise with an appetite for fresh blood. That is, if his sire doesn't manage to get them both killed.
And to make matters worse, Martin's working nights now.
