Plot Summary of Goodnight Kiss 2
"Billy has been to Sandy Hollow before. This summer, he's returning to the little resort town-but not for fun in the sun. He is searching for creatures of the night-the vampires who prey on the tourists there. Billy's girlfriend was one of those tourists-until vampires killed her. Now Billy has vowed to destroy them all."
Rebecca, Resident Scholar
