I live to wipe out his kind.

But he might be my last hope.

I am Harper Jones, a specialist in occult sciences and a vampire hunter. My childhood conditioned me to hate them and hunt them down, and for years I have worked towards one single goal: avenging my family.

When a series of suspicious murders terrifies London, I redouble my efforts to rid the city of monsters, even if this means joining forces with my worst enemies.

Their condition: a chaperon of their choosing.

A certain Lysandre, another vampire, a master in the art of making things hard for me.

But this is not the most disturbing aspect of my life.

Something is dormant within me: a darkness that is taking me over, swallowing me up...

Why does this vampire seem to know about the evil eating away at me?

What does he know about my past?

This quest for the truth might very well cost me my soul, along with my heart.
