Boken handler om den evig unge vampyren Marius med engleansiktet. Vi følger ham fra barndommen i Kiev og opp gjennom århundrene; i Konstantinopel, Venezia, Paris og New Orleans.

Blackwood Farm with its grand Southern mansion, set among dark cypress swamps in Louisiana, harbours terrible blood-stained secrets and family ghosts. Heir to them all is Quinn Blackwood, young, rash and beautiful, himself a tyro bloodhunter whom Lestat takes under his wing. But Quinn is in thrall not only to the past and his own appetites but, even more dangerously, to a companion spirit, a goblin succubus who could destroy him and others. Only the unearthly power of the ubiquitous Mayfair clan could hope to save Quinn from himself and his ghosts, or to rescue the doomed girl Quinn loves from her own mortality.

This novel begins where Blackwood Farm left off, and tells the story of Lestat's quest for redemption, goodness, and the love of Rowan Mayfair.
