That is, until the night she catches Grace-a not very good vampire hunter-stalking her through the streets of Dublin. Something about Grace is achingly familiar. And strangely irresistible.Rue soon learns that Grace is herself being hunted, and is thrown into a battle she never wanted, to save a woman who wants her dead. As Rue unravels the horrifying and treacherous plot, she also uncovers a secret about Grace that could change everything. Along the way, Rue finds herself drawn to the girl, and is forced to choose: Continue her solitary life of safety, or risk it all for love?Through it all, Rue recalls her creation and formative nights in an ancient world far from the rainy streets of Dublin, a world where she learned to live, love, hunt and kill.

Then she finds herself hunted, by a frustratingly familiar and distractingly desirable girl. A girl who is being hunted herself.That's when things get a whole lot worse.Sumer, Second Millennium BCE:Born a daughter of the temple, Asharru is a true believer, a child of the gods. When she is chosen to be High Priestess, she is proud and certain of her destiny; to be the messenger of the gods, and to make certain they are pleased in all things.When raiders from the mountains attack, raping and ravaging, destroying her city and devastating her dreams, Asharru decides to die by her own hand rather than theirs, calling to the gods to take her soul. The gods do not hear—but something else does. Something dark, patient and eternal. Reborn in pain, torn from light and life, Asharru must learn to survive, in endless nights of sand, sorrow, and blood.
