This is a story about Vampires. Vampires who don’t go all sparkly in the sun and wouldn’t be caught dead munching on your neighbours bunny... They’ll just eat your neighbour - but they have a problem. Actually they have several. Fext, ‘King’ of the Seven Vampire Houses has been missing for almost thirty years and the head of the Seventh House is falling in love - with a human. Somewhere in the woods a girl is watching Vampires stalk their prey while she dreams and the first Dhampir in over four hundred years is about to wake up in a pool of blood. Oh, and to top it all off, there’s a bloody prophecy involving all of them and the hills are alive with the sound of howling...

Lady Cassandra Greenwich and her best friend Lady Emilia Lockwood has everything young women in Victorian England could want. Wealth, beauty and the pick of all the bachelors fashionable London society has to offer. But the fiery women are uninspired to find love among the insipid gentlemen who prowl the drawing rooms of the elite ton. Ladies of leisure by day and masked avengers by night, Cassie and Em find themselves investigating a string of suspicious murders in London. Unable to make much headway on their own, the pair stumbles across four strangers who will change their lives forever. Is the Marquis and Marchioness of Konstantin what they pretend to be – just another well-to-do, striking couple? And what of their two incredibly attractive male companions? Who are they and how are they related to the murders? Will Cassie and Em solve the mystery of the murders and perhaps find true love at the same time, or have the two friends finally bitten off more than they can possibly chew?
