Anyway, going back to the comment in Spy Games, let me just say this: You're missing something.
Of course we are, that's half the fun.
One of the benefits of being a writer is that you know which words to
emphasise in your head to both imply what is false, yet still give hints to what is true
One of the benefits of being a reader is that you
don't get any of that emphasis insight, and can either spend time poring over every interpretation (literal, implied or otherwise), or find one you like and stick to it.
So, like I said... Vampires
