The Talamasca, documenters of paranormal activity, is on
the hunt for the newly born Lasher. Mayfair women are
dying from hemorrhages and a strange genetic anomaly has
been found in Rowan and Michael. Lasher, born from Rowan,
is another species altogether and now in the corporeal
body, represents an incalcuable threat to the Mayfairs.
Rowan and Lasher travel together to Houston and she
becomes pregnant with another creature like him, a Taltos.
Lasher seeks to reproduce his race in other women, but
they cannot withstand it. Rowan escapes and becomes
comatose as her fully-grown Taltos daughter is born. The
Mayfairs declare all-out war on Lasher and try to nurse
Rowan back to heatlth.
Michael remains entwined in the Mayfair family and learns
how he comes by his strange powers. Michael's ghostly
visiting from a long-dead Mayfair reveals the importance
of destroying Lasher. In the investigation, Lasher's
origins are revealed, the new Taltos Emaleth returns, and
the climax of death and life engulfs the family.
