Award-winning fantasy author Tanith Lee breaks into the horror genre with a compelling and sensual vampire novel. Rachaela worked in a bookstore, a conventional young woman, living a conventional life. Then they beckoned, using a variety of ruses to lure her to the house by the sea. Now she is a prisoner, part of a family of creatures she cannot escape, lover to a demon who thirsts for her blood.

The sequel to "Dark Dance". The House is destroyed, the Scarabae dead or scattered, and the youngest and most dangerous of them, voracious for destruction, is free. Ruth, a mind as old as evil in the body of a teenage girl, unleashes blood and fire across southern England.

A new tale of horror featuring the mysterious vampiric family of Scarabae follows Anna, a family member, as she and twenty other children are kidnapped and taken to a pyramid under the Southern ice by an immortal named Cain. By the author of Personal Darkness.
