Her merciless dreams entail mortal danger... Since the half-vampire Kat Crofield and her immortal lover Bones met six years ago, they have had quite a lot - they fought against the bloodthirsty dead, fought with the merciless Master - vampire and swore a blood oath of their devotion to each other. It's time to take a vacation. But hopes for a pleasant holiday in Paris are shattered when Kat wakes up one night from a nightmare. She dreams of a vampire named Gregor, whose powers exceed those of Bones. And, as it turns out, there is a connection between Kat and Gregor that she did not suspect. Gregor is convinced that Kat belongs to him, and is not going to stop until he achieves his goal. In a battle between the vampire who haunts her nightmares and the vampire who owns her heart, only Kat is able to break Gregor's bonds. She'll need all the strength she's ever possessed to defeat the worst bloodsucker she's ever experienced... Even if those strengths carry her to an early grave.
