In a world where the dead don’t rise as zombies but vampires, what do you do when the anti-Twilight bloodsucking creeps out to get you are your closest family and friends? Could you stake the after-life out of your grandmother, child, parent, or lover? What if these vampires were smarter than your average bear and used their resemblances to your loved ones to lure you into their traps? 
              Humans have become nearly outnumbered and fight every minute of everyday to just stay alive. They spend their days trying to rebuild the world they’ve lost and their nights cowering from the predators hunting them down. Most people cower away from the Vampires, their flight response stronger than that of the fight. This could not be further from the truth for our heroine, Arianna “Ari” Jade Martinez. 
	Arianna has lost everything that ever meant anything to her at the hands of the power hungry vampires. When you have nothing left to live for, death doesn’t seem like too bad an alternative. And when you don’t fear death there really isn’t much left to be afraid of. Join Ari as she faces off against the evil ones trying to control the world, and makes some unexpected friends along the way, in her attempt to exact revenge and above all else stay alive.
