A new dawn, a new weapon.

Alice thought she understood her purpose.
She was the first Nightwalker, a vampire made to hunt her own kind.
But the Order of the Morning Dawn has a new creation.
A rebellious progeny, forged by Alice’s own bite.
Loyal only to the Order, he wields a glowing silver crucifix, a “Gilded Cross.”
They claim its light is celestial, a gift from angels.
Alice, secretly sustained by the Eucharist, suspects a darker origin.
Could this holy light be born of the very witchcraft the Order condemns?
As the lines between good and evil blur, Alice must uncover the truth.
Is the Order truly fighting darkness, or are they the greater evil?
And can she save her soul when her own creation is turned against her?

In 1891 Alice Bladewell lost her human life. It was when her new existence began. For more than a century, she was an agent of the Order of the Morning Dawn, a pseudo-religious organization dedicated to the elimination of all vampires and witches.

You’ve read about Alice before in The Legacy/Fury of a Vampire Witch, in The Legend of Nyx, and in Alice in Vampireland.

This is Alice’s story. How she became a vampire, made to kill other vampires – and how she became the nightmare that the Order feared the most.
