'Melody and Rudy are teenagers in love and on the run, heading for Bali after the death of a vampire. That man who kissed Melody on the neck four years ago: he was a vampire, wasn’t he? He must have been, because that stake through the heart sure killed him. Of course, it’d kill anyone, wouldn’t it.'
