Description
The thrilling prequel to the New York Times bestselling Cassie Palmer series, featuring seductive and dangerous Master Vampire Mircea Basarab. Fifteenth century Venice is a safe haven for the masterless dregs of the vampire world, a city where they can live without the fear of retribution for violating another’s territory. Still, there are plenty of ways for a young vampire to die in the glittering city, a lesson that prince turned pauper Mircea Basarab must learn quickly. But there are opportunities, too—in the service of a secretive courtesan, in the bed of a beautiful senator, and in the hunt for an ancient assassin. As a vendetta older than Venice itself comes to a climax, Mircea struggles to evade the dangers of his current life, to come to terms with his past, and to uncover the truth hidden behind a city of masks… Includes a bonus excerpt of the first Cassie Palmer novel, Touch the Dark. Praise for the Cassie Palmer Novels: “A series well worth getting hooked on.”—Fresh Fiction “Karen Chance will enthrall you.”—USA Today Bestselling Author Rebecca York “The urban fantasy equivalent of a summer blockbuster.”—SF Site “Chance takes her place along[side]...Laurell K.
