Tananarive Due writes well, and her vampire tales aren't populated with the usual bloodsucking fiends and goth grrls. Complex characters with long histories interact thoughtfully and take challenging paths to their goals. In My Soul to Keep, African-American journalist Jessica Wolde encounters Dawit, the beautiful immortal (definitely not-your-Bram-Stokerish-vampire). Love, loss, change, growth ensue.
