The newly freed naturi are wreaking havoc throughout the various
domains in Europe. Mira, Danaus, Valerio, and Stefan have been
dispatched by the Coven to Budapest, where a high number of both
humans and nightwalkers have been killed during the past couple of
months. While there, Mira and Danaus find themselves entangled in a
tightening web of lies and betrayal that leave them at each others
throats. As they struggle to unravel the complex ruling hierarchy
in Budapest, Mira finds herself drawn back to her own kind while
her burgeoning relationship crumbles before her eyes as Danaus
chooses a captive human over her.
"An unflinchingly self-assured first novel, chiseled with subtlety and irony into a darkly suspenseful and blessedly surprising story. In exacting detail, and with prose as silky and enticing as her protagonist, Drake has composed a love letter to the vampire genre. I wish I'd written it."--Vicki Pettersson on Nightwalker
