The Blood series by [[Tanya Huff]] is a set of five books (and plenty of short stories) that was eventually adapted into the television show ''[[Blood Ties]]''. It takes place in [[Toronto]], except for the last book being in [[Vancouver]]. The heroine is [[Defective Detective]] Vicki Nelson, whose retinitis pigmentosa forced her to quit being a cop and become an [[Occult Detective]]. Her off-and-on [[Cop Boyfriend]]/ex-partner Mike Celluci is not terribly thrilled with her choice of lifestyle. Then Vicki ends up meeting [[Friendly Neighborhood Vampire]] Henry Fitzroy and partners with/dates/donates blood to him on a regular basis. The fourth main character is Tony Foster, a homeless kid that Vicki recruits to help give Henry blood, and ends up involved with Henry as well.
