  • Child of the Night - Carol's life has come to a dead halt. She has nothing to live for, but a trip to Bordeaux, France propels her into a world of violence and love that twists her life so that she no longer recognizes herself. And then there's the child. The offspring of a mating between Carol and Andre, her sadistic vampire lover.
  • Near Death - David and Zero are both losers. He's a poetic vampire, stuck in another century, relegated to his coffin in Manchester. Zero's life of drugs and prostitution have left her nearly morally bankrupt. Love and betrayal blend as they search New York's mean streets for the monster trying to kill them.
  • Reborn - Karl is crushed when Gerlinde disappears. A series of murders in the fragile vampire community force the scientist in him to investigate. He discovers shocking realities, both chemical and emotional, and it is only the sacrifice in Germany of one he loves that enables him to destroy the danger before it destroys all of them.
