Educated in the Florence of Cosimo de' Medici, trained in
knighthood at his father's mountaintop castle, Vittorio
inhabits a world of courtly splendor and country
pleasures -- a world suddenly threatened when his entire
family is confronted by an unholy power.
In the midst of this upheaval, Vittorio is seduced by the
vampire Ursula, the most beautiful of his supernatural
enemies. As he sets out in pursuit of vengenace, entering
the nightmarish Court of the Ruby Grail, increasingly more
enchanted (and confused) by his love for the mysterious
Ursula, he finds himself facing demonic adversaries, war
and political intrigue.
