'I was only twenty years old when I died. Who would have thought that with death came immortality?'

Britchelstone is plagued by a rampant serial killer targeting young women. Mere weeks after turning twenty, Scarlet Cherie finds herself as his first victim; left to rot on the side of the road, she slips into the darkness, awaiting her mortal fate. Awaking to find herself in the presence of enigmatic Nikolaos, Scarlet’s life is about to change in ways she could never have envisaged. As the killer continues to strike, Scarlet is thrown into an unprecedented reality where fact and fiction are blurred.

With an entourage of preternatural creatures, as well as her own newfound powers, she plots to bring her killer to justice, all the while coming to terms with living a life shrouded in shadows and bloodlust.

At times, catching a murderer seems to be the least complicated aspect of Scarlet’s new life. Living with a vampire and delving into arcane truths have their own dark and daunting complexities…

"I love vampire stories and this one didn't disappoint. The novel is full of interesting, layered characters. I enjoyed reading about Nikolaos, a 2000-year-old Greek vampire, and how Scarlet coped with her new life as a vampire....I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to read the next one." –Rated 5 Star by Eva Alton, author of The Vampires of Emberbury series.
