To stop the slaughter, vampires and vampire hunters must work together, the two feuding forces setting aside their differences for the greater good. A vampire prison, centuries old and teaming with starved captives, is broken open when an earthquake rips through the land.

She broke vampires' most sacred law—don’t kill humans.
