Sure, the life of a graduate student wasn't exactly
glamorous, but it was mine. I was doing fine until Chicago's
vampires announced their existence to the world-and then a
rogue vampire attacked me. But he only got a sip before he
was scared away by another bloodsucker... and this one
decided the best way to save my life was to make me the
walking undead.
Turns out my savior was the master vampire of Cadogan House.
Now I've traded sweating over my thesis for learning to fit
in at a Hyde Park mansion full of vamps loyal to Ethan "Lord
o' the Manor" Sullivan. Of course, as a tall, green-eyed,
four hundred year old vampire, he has centuries' worth of
charm, but unfortunately he expects my gratitude-and
servitude. Right...
But my burgeoning powers (all of a sudden, I'm surprisingly
handy with some serious weaponry), an inconvenient sunlight
allergy, and Ethan's attitude are the least of my concerns.
Someone's still out to get me. Is it the rogue vampire who
bit me? A vamp from a rival House? An angry mob bearing torches?
My initiation into Chicago's nightlife may be the first
skirmish in a war-and there will be blood...
