Fred Hampton’s Blues 

Three vampires…Oscar, 550 years old, white, and upper middle class, Errol, 70 years old, black, and working class and Terry, 100 years old, white, and working class, share a basement conversion in Fulham, London.All is well, until the murder of George Floyd in 2020, which causes Terry and Errol, to fall out over a minor disagreement, leaving Oscar to manipulate the situation to his advantage. Despite being a long-time Socialist, Terry is soon asked to leave the house, and subsequently decides to travel North to meet up with Bane Vulpine, a right- wing Podcaster and also Maxwell, a Trans-Vampire, with whom he sets up Stay In Your Lane Publishing to fight back against an increasingly censorious establishment.Further complications arise following his relationship with a mortal called Lauryn, who is black, and after he intervenes to save her son, from the grips of a local gang leader, he faces renewed condemnation. Therefore, in the wake of these turbulent events, where next for Terry? Can he remain true to his beliefs? Or, ultimately, is he fated to lose it all?
