Surrogate Evil — Aimee Thurlo; David Thurlo

A Navajo vampire and Latina FBI agent go undercover to catch a supernatural child predator in this chilling southwestern thriller.

Newton Glover is a piece of scum that local law enforcement can't seem to touch. He's suspected of breaking into homes, vandalizing property, dealing drugs and porn, and even murder. Glover always gets away with it, hinting at a secret government background and "protection" from the Powers That Be.

But Glover may have finally gone too far when he's suspected of kidnapping a young boy for a pedophile sex-ring. Surrogate Evil, there's no proof, but this time, Albuquerque police are determined to nail him to the wall.

Navajo state police officer Lee Nez and FBI agent Diane Lopez go undercover as a married couple in Glover's trailer park. As they navigate their growing attraction, they learn that Glover's neighbors recently beat him to death and buried him in a shallow grave - only for him to reappear days later without a mark on him. Lee, a Navajo vampire, and Diane, whose last partner was killed by a werewolf, are no strangers to the supernatural and are determined to stop Glover, no matter what he is.

But when a second child goes missing, the clock is ticking. Glover may be un-dead, but those children will be really dead - or worse - if Lee and Diane don't crack the case in time.
