"Vampires are being abducted and murdered in the city of London. A fragmented coven is forced together to try and uncover the truth, but wounds that not even time has been able to heal drive them deeper into danger. Faced with complete destruction, they must find a way to overcome grievances and loss, if they are to survive. A very real threat will take them from Vampire High Society to the subterranean world of the ancient Nocturnem. Soon, the question becomes not if they can save their world, but if they can save themselves...In the Absence of Sun."
