In a hidden sanctuary in the Canadian Rockies, Anton Weiss’s vampire descendants continue to stay one step ahead of their Grand Father’s murderous rampage. As their former affluent society continues to collapse, they are joined by other family refugees, and during the fight to survive, Gilles is pushed to his physical and mental limit, while Mark and Mina become pawns in a vicious game that has existed for centuries. But what game? And why? The answer remains elusive, until a collection of ancient books reveals a possible key to the vampires' survival. But the dark history also suggests, that in order to defeat Weiss, Mark must make the biggest sacrifice of all.
As the survivors of Anton Weiss's massacre gather in California, Mark and Gilles set out in search of their murderous ancestor. Their journey takes them to the British Isles, then south into Europe and the city of Marseilles. However, as they cross the Mediterranean and arrive in North Africa, not only are they betrayed by Weiss, they also discover the reason behind his murderous mission. In the heat of the desert, surrounded by horror, Mark has no choice but to bow before the halls of his dead ancestors. He emerges with a gift — a new, undeniable strength. But as the final battle with Weiss approaches, will it be enough?
