DECEPTION HAS CONSEQUENCES

A NEW BEGINNING
One year after the events of Lady of Shadow, Lucilla attempts to put her past behind her by seeking a new life in New Orleans.
A SECRET ORDER
Her fresh start soon unravels when she discovers The Order of Blood, a hidden society of vampires secretly governing the city for centuries. Led by the powerful Pandora, Lucilla is invited to join their ranks. She reluctantly accepts, hoping for a sense of belonging, only to uncover a sinister plot that threatens to reshape the world.
SINS OF THE PAST
To make matters worse, old enemies resurface. Savannah Tillman, now a vengeful vampire, arrives to hunt her down alongside Dorian Hunter and Detective Madeline Carmichael. Lucilla must not only defeat The Order of Blood but somehow forge a fragile alliance with her pursuers to save the world from Pandora’s bloodthirsty ambitions.
Dorian Hunter

Shattered by the horrific events in Charleston, Dorian Hunter is now a broken man. Abandoned by Lucilla and despised by Savannah, he is desperate to right the wrongs of his past. Despite Savannah’s hostility towards him, Dorian stands by her as both trainer and caretaker, preparing her for the inevitable confrontation with Lucilla in New Orleans.

Savannah Tillman

Now a newborn vampire, Savannah Tillman is hellbent on revenge against her maker. Her hatred for Lucilla and malcontent towards Dorian has transformed her into a powerful creature driven by vengeance. Determined to make Lucilla suffer her wrath, Savannah travels with Dorian to New Orleans to end her rival’s reign of terror once and for all.

Pandora

Pandora is a vampire elder whose beauty and power rival Lucilla. She is the leader of The Order of Blood, a vampire coven that has secretly been controlling New Orleans for centuries. During this time, she has acquired great influence and wealth. Pandora is vain, sexy, and ruthless. She welcomes Lucilla into her home with open arms, but her true intentions remain a mystery.

Madeline Carmichael

Traumatized by the death of her partner at the hands of Lucilla, Detective Madeline Carmichael has become obsessed with bringing the vampire to justice, an obsession that resulted in a six month suspension from her beloved police department. When Madeline discovers Lucilla’s location in New Orleans, she springs into action, forming an unlikely alliance with Dorian and Savannah.
