Some people struggle to stand apart. Some are just born weird. Toby knows what it means to be different. His father is vampire royalty. His human mother murdered her entire family. Not really a vampire, not really a mortal, Toby is all alone in the world. The only way he can become a Pure vampire is to find the Tepes Chalice then enlist the aid of a teenage necromancer. Sounds simple enough. Yeah. Sure. Toby's ex-girlfriend hid the Chalice thirty years earlier. The necromancer might be of more help, if the two of them could just stop arguing. On top of everything else, his mortal enemy has reemerged and a horde of wild vampires is rampaging through town. It's hard to imagine how things could get worse. Enter the Watchers. An underground organization that's declared eternal war on any threat against humanity, the Watchers are the bane of vampire-existence. Toby must root out the source of the vampire attacks before the Watchers target him and every other Disavowed vampire in the city.
