Trygg operates alone. The Gen One vampire assassin serves the Order without question, tracking their enemies across continents. His latest mission brings him to Rome, where he plans to eliminate a dangerous target. Then Tamisia crashes into his investigation. The banished Atlantean immortal works at a women's shelter, seeking redemption after her disgrace. When violence strikes the shelter and a brutal killing occurs, Sia demands answers. Her search leads her straight into Trygg's hunt. The vampire wants no partner, especially not this stubborn beauty who challenges his control. Sia refuses to back down. She needs this chance to prove herself worthy of returning home. As they pursue their shared enemy through Rome's shadows, something shifts between them. Trygg discovers that duty no longer commands him completely. The warrior who has always worked alone finds himself craving the one woman who could destroy his carefully built walls.
