_______________________
Without a home to return to, Aveline Arden seeks to start a new existence in the unassuming Maine town of Greyridge, but the presence of the local vampire, Cain Elding, derails her plans for the simple life.
Threads of secrecy intertwine their paths as the monster haunting Aveline's past draws nearer and Elding battles a legacy he never wished to inherit. Strange traditions clash with modern sensibilities, loyalties are tested, and both mortal girl and cursed vampire struggle to survive together.
A covert war spills into human society. Adversaries move unseen in the dark, the board is set, and the game must be played.
Aveline's about to learn how scary the world can get.
