Inigo Gagliardi

First introduced as the manager of the Rockaway Diner in BOOK 9. He gives Ava a job and a room to stay in. He is a vampire.

9-ch 49 Ava describes him with dark eyes and dark hair; tall with a lean and toned build, and a tattoo on his right bicep. He looks like a tan European soccer player. He wears tortoise-shell glasses for reading.

9-ch 54 Ava gets verbal confirmation that he is a vampire when she catches him drinking blood

9-ch 59 Charlie notes that his hand is scarred like a boxer’s and when he shakes it he states it’s cold like he’d just submerged it in ice water

BOOK 10

10-ch 25 Artemis states that he’s not bad looking with dark hair and dark eyes, a strong stubbled jaw, and an interesting face - one that had seen the harder side of life, with a tale to tell. She describes the diner as white, squat, with big dull neon letters

10-ch 41 Xavier states that Inigo looked like he was in his late twenties but was probably older than he looked. The diner has brown vinyl flooring

BOOK 11

11-ch 64 Ava states that Inigo has a seductive authority in his voice and that he was a man who could take charge of a situation. She states he has a woodsy scent - like pine trees and that there was something magnetic about him

11-ch 67 Inigo admits to Xavier that he finds it inconvenient for others to recognize his true form and is able to hide his vampire scent by using a chunky gold chain with an amulet around his neck as a covering charm
