In this revisionist vampire thriller, we meet Alex Stoica, a vigilante vampire who only feeds on the wicked and leads a quiet, under-the-radar existence along with the rest of the vampire Collective in Houston. These vampires don't follow Bram Stoker's rules and tropes for vampires. Crosses, garlic, stakes, holy water, and sunlight: do they affect these vampires? Nope. Do they still need blood? You bet they do.
Emelia Cord is a scientist and investigator for the Combined Departments of Paranormal Research (CDPR), a government agency that has been investigating mysterious bloodless bodies with no marks on them across the country.
When an ancient rogue vampire goes on a spree of mass killings in Houston and threatens to expose the secrets of the Collective, it puts Alex and Emelia on a collision course with each other and with the merciless Titus Seneca. Can they stop him before they too become the hunted?
Against the backdrop of the glass-and-steel urban landscape of Houston, Alex and Emelia use cutting-edge CDPR technology to track Titus through humid nights and unseen dimensions.
In this fast-paced thriller that combines elements of paranormal mystery, romance and adventure, nothing is as it seems-because
these vampires don't follow the rules!
