Though she holds the memory of that time dear to her heart, she must now focus on trying to escape the eternal and bloody war between her kind--the Vampires--and the Immortals, an undying race sworn to destroy her people. Leisha soon finds herself captured by the government, only to be saved by a young and mysterious human girl. What follows is the beginning of a long and tortuous journey as Leisha and her newfound friend run for their lives while searching for the one thing that can bring an end to the conflict--the prophecy child.
