The people of this town have been trapped there for a long time. They are now pretty insular and yet they haven't managed to defeat the monster who lives among them, keeping them trapped in Penance, OH.

Graf, who apparently can't follow GPS directions, gets lost trying to find a party and ends up in this small town. As no one has been able to enter or leave, people were shocked to have a stranger in their midst.

One can only wonder where they get the gas to run vehicles, manage to keep the electricity working etc. But they have been resourceful with these things because their survival depends upon it.

Kept me guessing. I like that.

Sexy urban vampire Graf gets trapped in Penance, Ohio, a town no one has been able to enter or leave in the past five years. As if being trapped in this white-trash haven isn't bad enough, the residents are being tormented by a monster. Graf's only hope of survival comes from reluctant ally Jessa, the beautiful but misunderstood town slut. In their quest to stop the monster & escape the town, between scenes of supernatural and hillbilly violence, Graf and Jessa realize they may be falling in love.

There's nothing ground-breaking here, and it's a testament to the author's skill that she's carved out an entertaining book from some overdone cliches. Graf and Jessa are likable and have chemistry, though the supporting characters are fairly one-dimensional. The story about the town had a creepy Salem witch trials / Lord of the Flies vibe. The monster story wasn't as well done. The "who" and "why" behind the monster became pretty clear about halfway through the book, and it was annoying that Jessa and Graf didn't figure it out sooner.

Overall, a quick and fun read.
Jennifer Armintrout should be a better known author than she is. A few years back she wrote a fabulous vampire series called "Blood Ties". She shocked me by the depravity of some of the characters. Morality wasn't a black and white concept to those vampires, more like shades of grey. I didn't always like the characters or their choices but I was hooked on the storytelling. Her next effort was a fae type of trilogy that was extremely well told and also highly underrated. Of course I had to read her newest effort, "American Vampire", a single title novel.

The story is about a vampire named Graf who is minding his own buisiness, headed to a party hosted by his maker, when he finds himself stuck going in circles. Instead of hot women and some hot blood to quinch his thirst, Graf finds a town cut off from the outside world and the monster which inhabits that town. Since the monster has mysteriously shown up in Penance, Ohio no one else has been able to leave the town, nor has anyone outside the town been able to find a way in. So it is strange when Graf shows up. The town is immediately wary of the newcomer.

Jessa's been alone since her family has died. Most of the town doesn't look too fondly on Jessa either. When Graf can't find shelter and dawn in fast approaching, the two make a bargain that ensures him Jessa's roof over his head. From this point the plot is pretty simple. Graf and Jessa try to uncover the mystery of the monster and hopefully discover a way to leave town.

I liked the plot and I suspected what was behind the mystery but never knew with 100% certaintly until the end. I liked Graf because I didn't think he fell easily into either good guy or bad guy status. Jessa also is unique in that she is a heroine who is pretty but not gorgeous and she has a reputation, even somewhat deservadly, of being the town easy. I was able to root for them and I also thought the monster or "IT" as the town people referred to the monster, was quite entertaining.

Some of the story was slow moving and I wasn't thrilled with the novel's resolution. The book ended up being just so so for me and not amoung Armintrout's standouts. Still with this author's track record, I remain eager to see what she creates in the future.
