But the Morganville they return to is not the one they know; it became a different place - deadly... Some drastic changes took place in Morganville while Claire and her friends were far away. The town looks cleaner and happier than they've ever seen it before, but when, upon entering the city, their group was arrested and separated - vampires from humans - they realized that the changes were not for the better. It appears that a foundation called Daylight has offered the people of Morganville something they never had: hope that they can have a vampire-free future. And while this sounds like salvation - even for vampires - the truth is much more sinister and deadly. Now Claire, Shane and Eve must find a way to rescue their friends from the foundation before the vampires of Morganville meet their end...
