Sixteen‑year‑old Catherine Rose has always found solace in books and the quiet corners of her world-half‑African American, half‑Caucasian, and painfully aware of her own loneliness.

By day, he's a gentle soul yearning for connection; by night, he battles a relentless darkness that lurks beneath his skin-a demonic curse that feeds on fear and thirsts for blood. Watching from the sidelines is Agent Stephen Patterson, a seasoned CIA investigator assigned to Richmond's Homicide Investigational Unit.
