Storyline:  The story is a complex, detailed portrait of a human family, the Nevilles, and a ring of vampires; the two become dangerously tangled over the course of this book. George Neville is a scientist, with one son (a veteran of the Great War), and three daughters. The middle daughter, Charlotte, works with her father as his assistant in his scientific research - and acts as his substitute for his dead wife, her perfect mother. This role however has always smothered her and left her unable to express her true self; that is until she meets Karl, a vampire who continues to experience a world of human emotions that he ought to have left behind.

Karl intends no harm at all to the Neville family; he only wants to study science. But his presence draws other vampires after him. And besides, he cannot resist Charlotte's mixture of passion and vulnerability... Their love threatens to destroy both Charlotte and her family; and none of them can escape Karl's eternal enemy, Kristian.
