All Elder vampires go mad. All, save one. Adrian Rowe was a survivor on the streets of LA before Garrick, an Elder vampire, turned him into a weapon. The deal was simple: a home and a pair of fangs in exchange for total, lethal devotion. Forty years and one murder later, the bill is coming due. Fleeing to San Francisco to serve a new, volatile master, Adrian finds himself in the crosshairs of a professional hunter and a rival vampire with unexpected powers. One wants Adrian’s head. The other wants his heart. As a silver bullet closes in, Garrick—the protector who promised everything—does nothing. Adrian must face the brutal truth of the vampire underworld: loyalty is a death sentence, and the Madness is the only way out. Trapped in a web of betrayal and ancient lies, Adrian has to decide: how much is he willing to bleed for a master who has already abandoned him? For fans of Interview with the Vampire who want contemporary stakes and brutal consequences.
