The wild, hidden town of Shadow Hills holds a secret.
Sebastian Bloom has the perfect life working as a private detective in the city of New York, with his shady girlfriend, Storm Edar.
However, when he finds a tattered note in his cellar, he begins to realise that things are not quite as they seem in the Bloom family.
A rave leaves Sebastian with some startling questions about his past, and he sets off to a deserted cabin to find some answers.
At first the people of Shadow Hills are suspicious and ill-manned. He is intrigued by the curiously intuitive psychiatrist, Roxane Becks. However, after she introduces him to hard alcohol, Sebastian slowly finds himself drawn into a web of impersonation, adultery and perhaps, even man slaughter.
Can Sebastian resist the charms of Roxane Becks and uncover the secret of the tattered note before it's too late, or will his demise become yet another dark legend?
Ari and Soren's adventures continue as Soren struggles with his new vampiric urges and a coven of witches attempts to recruit Ari for their own ends.
*****
As dark dreams plague Soren, Ari finds his new abilities difficult to control. Something is awakening within him, and as his power grows, he attracts the attention of a group of witches who call themselves the Hecataeon. They believe Ari is an emanation of the goddess Hecate - a physical manifestation of her power - and they want that power for themselves. With their relationship facing challenges from within, Ari and Soren must find a way to unite their strengths before external forces tear them apart.
