Publisher's Synopsis
Death has come to the City in the form of a serial killer who preys on women.
Since being turned to a blood-sucking host during the French Revolution, Julien St. Blaise has sought evidence to the fate of his beloved wife and daughter. Now, with Benito Achilles dead and the inheritance blocked by a heretofore unknown heir, it appears he will never find the answers he needs to put his heart and family to rest.
Rowena Childs has envied Julien for the place of importance he's held in her estranged father's life since well before she was born. All she wants is to gain access to her father's grimoires, to ensure no more hosts can ever be made.
As a gruesome killer stalks the streets of Manhattan and haunts Rowena, she and Julien must join forces to bring down the killer-one who shares their immortal state.
