"Killing Vampires Since 1888."Born in the heart of the vampire population in Bucharest in 1880, Forrest Wollinsky is considered a freak of nature. By the time he turns eight, he's the size of an adult. Children his age, and some of his teachers, shun him. Then a werewolf reveals to Forrest that his life is in immediate danger. A master vampire plots to kill Forrest because he's a preordained Vampire Hunter. This is how Forrest Wollinsky's chosen destiny begins.

The original Circle of Unity council that had presided over Nocturnal Trinity—the underground Seattle nightclub—remains in shambles after Micah and his pack of werewolves invaded to settle an old score. Thinking he can bring back balance, Micah merges a new faction into the Circle of Unity, the werewolves. However, ancient vampires never take lightly to threats, nor do they like abrupt deviations. The elder vampires and the demon council members detest the werewolves even more than before, refusing to enter the truce or even acknowledge anything less than a fractured Circle of Unity. Faced by such opposition, will Micah succeed in uniting the factions or will it cause more problems than it could solve, perhaps even his own life?Flora, one of the elder vampires, has taken the newly turned vampire, Raven, as her proselyte to mold and nurture because her protégé has something none of the other vampires have—seething rage and resentment toward the werewolves and her former best friend, Kailey Yates. Raven blames them for their betrayal, which has caused her eternal undeath, and she seeks to mentally torment and torture Kailey. With the young vampire's burning bitterness knowing no end, she isn't giving Kailey the chance to fully mourn the death of her brother and settle into her new life. Is Kailey strong enough to both fight for her new life and for her very life against Raven?

Nocturnal Trinity is the exclusive nightclub everyone in Seattle raves about, where the crème de la crème of the city mingles and parties. Access and membership are by rare invitation only. Those hopeful to become members are desperately willing to do almost anything to be chosen. They sacrifice hours of their time waiting in line, give blood offerings, offer their very souls, and even kill, if doing so grants them a better chance for entry into the nightclub.To the unknowing eye, the nightclub’s symbol above the door is merely occultic art, but to the ones able to translate its obvious message, the symbol screams a blatant declaration of the union of vampires, witches, and demons that preside over the club.“Welcome to Nocturnal Trinity!” sounds like a cordial invitation for any new member fortunate enough to be chosen to partake in the Seattle Underground, but not so for Kailey Yates. She discovers something far more sinister resides inside the nightclub and their combined powers spellbind and blindly draw the lust of the city’s elite, mesmerizing them into doing whatever the nightclub’s Circle of Unity commands.Kailey believed these creatures only existed in fantasy novels and movies, but now that she knows they are real, she must fight for her life because some of them want her dead. And one of those is the demon who murdered her brother.

An ancient, dark presence makes itself known in Seattle. Through an anonymous tip, Officer Brady and Forrest Wollinsky, a Vampire Hunter, discover a city councilor’s corpse. The weapon used is a medieval torture device left behind as the murderer’s calling card, which is a taunting, bold clue. Forrest immediately senses something frighteningly familiar about the ritual and who the perpetrator is.One vampire comes to mind from nearly a century earlier and from halfway around the world. However, the vampire isn’t the only ancient roaming the Seattle streets. Something worse has emerged. The combination of the two forces is powerful enough to make the remaining four vampire owners of the Nocturnal Trinity nightclub tremble. Is their inherent fear capable of making them set aside their differences and align themselves with a Vampire Hunter in order to survive?
