A compelling, contemporary fantasy with a vampire hero torn between two worlds, and an outsider in both, who seeks to discover the truth about his origins and find out where he truly belongs. A series of gruesome animal/vampire attacks on humans threatens to undermine the vampires' secretive existence. As the attacks mount, so does the evidence, and it points to Bane and his newly learned Occupying skills. Yet Oliver, Emalie, and Dean suspect a larger, more sinister plot is afoot, with roots tracing back to Oliver's destiny, and possibly even further, to the mystery surrounding his human parents. Bane may hold the key to Oliver uncovering his past and changing his future, so it falls on Oliver, Emalie, and Dean to rescue Bane from the Half Light Consortium and clear his name.
