About the Author A native of Houston, Donald W.
This time, the vampiro outbreak was destined to appear on Lorena Pastore\'s very own doorstep.
For some inexplicable reason, after only a brief remission of a little more than a seven-year hiatus, the malignant disease of human vampirism had been reincarnated.
Sadly, that was not to be the case.
She had erroneously predicted that she would be well into her middle years of life when the next outbreak would be anticipated to once again rear its ugly head.
As a young curandera, Lorena Pastore was only twenty-five years old when the last outbreak occurred, and she remembered the devastation and shocking horror that had rapidly spread throughout her beloved community at that time.
Every two decades or so, one or more bloodthirsty ghouls would appear that would prey upon the unsuspecting and completely vulnerable members of New Mexico\'s small but harmonious and tightly knit community that had long been an admixture of First American, Hispanic, and Anglo residents.
