War clouds gather in turbulent early 20th century Europe. Life is about to change forever for both humanity and vampyres. Dual forces from both worlds approach Serephine looking to enlist her aid in the coming fight. The beautiful and seductive Elsabeth von Karloch tempts Serephine with promises of power and lineage while her French homeland appeals to the patriotism running through her veins.

Working with her vivacious best friend, Lexi LaSalle, they must prevent the fall of France and a global cataclysm. The last vestiges of Imperial Europe meet the brutal reality of modern war as the time for nobles comes to an end in the muddy fields of Flanders and France. From Paris to the frontline trenches, into Germany and a frantic race to the exotic Near East, Serephine is pushed to her limits by challenges both earthly and immortal. With the fate of the world in the balance, Serephine must decide whether she will succumb to her monstrous nature or fight alongside those striving for a better world.
