The small Midwestern town of Orison Crossing has a secret: it's 2006 and a Civil War veteran has an office on Main Street. Sure, the townsfolk whisper all kinds of rumors, but when they say, "Bloodsucking lawyer," they mean it literally. Humans. Vampires. God. Lucifer. One woman stands between them...and they all want her dead. Orphaned in an accident ten years ago, Paresh Hawthorne returns to her childhood home and her reality shatters. Her uncle kidnapped her. The man who should have raised her, attorney Eric Ravenscroft, is a vampire. And she may not be as human as she thought. Already ensnared by the despair of failure, Eric must face the guilt of a widower in love and grapple with the unearthly desires of his predatory beast. Paresh's innocence and ethereal blood are ultimate temptations. But, as a cloaked man haunts Paresh's dreams, another threat appears in Eric's brother, Jonathan, a harbinger who stalks the shadows with cryptic motives. Mysteries and lies stack on escalating threats and a family history tarnished by murder, but the truest dangers lurk in madness and the unknown. The Vampiric High Council's Arch Elder has staked his interest in Paresh and the grace of God may not be enough to protect her. The fabled prophecy to redeem the Vampiric Nation may be upon them, but will their cold-hearted leader choose salvation . . . or order Jonathan to kill their savior in favor of destruction?
