Jason Turner dreams of becoming a detective, but things take a strange turn when his roommate asks for a police escort on a date with a supposed ‘vampire’. Jason meets Silvana, a mysterious woman searching for a new husband—and maybe a new source of blood. Secrets abound in the quiet seaside town of Plymouth, England. A cult of vigilante monster hunters is gaining popularity, and people claiming to be immortals roam the streets. As Jason grows closer to Silvana, his attraction deepens, but so does his suspicion.

Jason Turner has taken one small step into the world of Immortals. Now, he’s about to take a giant leap. Silvana’s family has been invited to a gala for the rich and powerful Immortal Houses that rule from the shadows. Silvana knows this is her chance to make allies and save her dying House from fading into ruin. But the Immortal world is a ruthless, cutthroat society that preys on the naïve. Her family is weak, and the vampires smell blood in the water. Things take a turn for the worse when the gala comes under attack and a wealthy wizard is killed. Who or what is responsible? And why?
