Blood Ties

A night shattered by unspeakable savagery...

A loss so great it calls those who keep to the shadows to action...

As Bridget-elder vampire and former assassin to the mother of vampires-celebrates with her soon-to-be fledgling, Sébastien, the tranquility of Paris is destroyed by violence. Over a hundred people lie dead... among them, Sébastien.

Grief-stricken and furious, Bridget vows to return to her former role-using her preternatural powers to bear on those who kill so many innocents. And unexpected help arrives as other vampires-sick of the destruction of their prey and the history they've lived through and built-join her cause.

But Bridget and her allies aren't as careful as they thought in their war. As attacks are thwarted worldwide, ordinary humans are discovering a world they never imagined, one hidden in plain sight from them, one both fascinatingly beautiful and terrifying.

Can Bridget change the world without endangering her kind? Or will her next war be waged against humans?
