Lenora Scheid can tell you much of human nature. After more than a century of traveling from warzone to warzone, she has experienced more than she can handle of mankind's thirst for blood and power. She cannot, however, tell you what she is. Not exactly human, but not precisely vampire either, Lenora's whole life has been spent under the watchful eye of her father. With only her dreams of a mysterious blue-eyed man as company, she has little choice but to follow her father across the world despite his refusal to help her understand what she is. As Lenora reaches the end of her tolerance with their life of travel and death, she comes face to face with her blue-eyed man and everything changes. Can this man save her from a life of brutality? Or will the secrets kept from her for so long destroy them both?
