Emma Andrews is born with blood marking her as Dhampir, a
child of suffering and a vampire hunter destined to
destroy vampires. Drawn to a girl's school which her
mother had attended, she receives a position posing as a
teacher to protect the girls who are threatened following
the deaths of several other students. At the same time,
Emma is searching for a way to find a release for her
mother.
The terrifying legend of the Cyrprian Queen, a dark
goddess, is a mystery Emma pursues with the mysterious
Valerian, a half-made brat of a vampire, her cousin
Sebastian and Father Luke. Shriving those having been
bitten to save them from becoming an undead is part of
Emma's calling with the help of her friends. Together they
weave their web to uncover the evil hold that Dracula and
his followers have kept alive throughout the centuries.
Paralyzing fear and darkness faces Emma as she strives to
unravel the mystery.
This is a Gothic tale of vampires and their activities in
establishing their control throughout the world. Emma is
devoted, to the extent of surrendering her life, to
uncovering the mysteries and saving the innocent girls at
the school. There is constant mystery and excitement from
the first page to the very last.
Born by blood to be Dhampir—a vampire hunter—Emma Andrews
nearly lost her life and everyone she loves at Dulwich
Manor. Now something evil is preying on students at a
northern Lake District girls' school—the same school Emma's
mother attended years ago. Drawn as much by the desire to
learn more about her family's secrets as the possibility of
vampires, Emma finds the schoolgirls in the grip of a
terrible legacy—the ageless evil of the Cyprian Queen, a
dark goddess of ancient legend. Now Emma must tread a
careful path—along with her old friends Sebastian, Father
Luke, and the mysterious and dashing Valerian Fox—deeper
into the darkness to face her most paralyzing fears . . .
and perhaps come one step closer to the Dracula himself.
