My name is Maddie. I am a vampire. Not a silly sparkling vampire from a popular book franchise. No, I'm a real vampire, the burn-in-the-sunlight vampire. I was created by Lestat de Lioncourt, a stuck up his own arse vampire, who unfortuneatly is a powerful and influential vampire. I am stuck with him as he is my maker, but soon he will let me go and I will finally do what I want to do. It is 2012, the year the world is meant to end... but maybe they weren't far from the truth. A war is brewing between the vampire and I seem to be in the middle of it. Lestat has disappeared and has passed his god-like powers, but that only makes me a bigger target. As the European and American Vampires ready for war, I have to try and find a way to stop it, before 2012 lives up to its reputation.

She knows that to finally be ridden of her captors, she must escape and find the school. It's a do or die situation, and the odds are stacked up against her. Will she be able to escape? Or will she be locked up in chains for the rest of her life by trying?
