This occult novel delves into Lane\u2019s past, uncovering more of his clan\u2019s history, and introduces two new types of vampires. His story is riddled with adventure, the paranormal, and mythology.<\/p>\n<p>It is 1730, seventeen years after we last saw Lane, Blayne, Relisys, Sacha, and the infant Rykael in the first book Strigoi. Lane DeLuca has cared for his mortal sister and the mortal child in Greece, and is now ready to bring her to meet her birth mother Relisys, who is staying with her husband Sacha in Lane\u2019s family villa in Umbria, Italy.<\/p>\n<p>Lane was turned into a Strigoi seventeen years previously, after the love of his life was murdered by the same vampire who made him immortal, the evil Kesar. After a long journey, Lane begins to unravel the sinister plot that changed his family\u2019s destiny. His lover\u2019s twin sister Relisys fell in love with Sacha, a count who is also Kesar\u2019s brother.<\/p>\n<p>Says the author, \u201cAfter I wrote Strigoi, I wanted to take the characters further. I thought it would be interesting to follow them from that time to modern times. So I continued on with the story.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the Author<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/sbprabooks.com\/wynterwilkins\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2013\/06\/Wilkins-Author-Web.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-23\" src=\"http:\/\/sbprabooks.com\/wynterwilkins\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2013\/06\/Wilkins-Author-Web.jpg\" alt=\"9781631359576-Wilkins_CV.indd\" width=\"180\" height=\"125\" \/><\/a>Born in central Kentucky, <strong>Wynter Wilkins<\/strong> has been asocial worker and a special education teacher.<br \/>\n\u201cThere was a great deal of family illness around me.
