Five Nights in the Windy City

A fiction anthology for Vampire: The Requiem

Chicago is the pulse of America, and no one knows this truth better than its vampires. They latch on to their city’s heart like the meat hooks that made it rich, and they’ll fight tooth and nail to keep their place at the table.

This anthology is a return to the midnight world of Chicago, the city where the Chronicles of Darkness really began. Join new and old faces alike among the Windy City’s Kindred for five tales of rivalry, revenge, and deadly romance, each from a different clan’s twisted perspective:

• “The Voice of Fire”: Take a ride with Reagan Riddle, Mekhet detective extraordinaire. On a desperate road trip to save her sire, Reagan digs up more history than she — or anyone — could ever want.
• “If You Can’t Be Both”: Share a nightmare with Littlejohn Roach, Chicago’s premier Nosferatu hustler, who learns what it means to be a real monster when an old rival turns the tables on him.
• “Last Night”: Hit the town with Robert Darcy, a Daeva bon vivant who’s reached the very end of his rope. It’s his last night on earth, and he plans to make the best of it — if only the lure of romance (and a very angry vampire) would let him…
• “Where Is My Mind?”: Sit in on a little therapy session with Thomas Delmar, a young Ventrue who came at the King of Chicago and isn’t sure what he’s missing.
• “The Reunion”: Survive the night with Lainey Hendrix, Gangrel rock star. Lainey’s about to meet a true predator, but even if she can make it out in one piece, she still won’t escape her past.
