Infectus

It has only been one year since twenty-year-old Rein Pierson boarded a ship to America in an effort to escape her fearful past. It was there, on that fated ship, that Rein met the mysterious Traith Harker, who would end up as her undoing-and her salvation. Rein and Traith fought off evil then, and they found love in one other. The year is now 1844. Rein learned Traith's dark secret-his vampire nature-and she is now one of his kind. Together, they believe they can face any dark foe as they look into a bright future, filled with passion. Perhaps, as immortals, together Rein and Traith can live normal lives. They could never guess that someone has other plans for them. A series of murders sweeps the English coast. Somehow, the deaths involve an ancient evil, hell bent on ruining lives. Plans for a regular, happily married life soon fade as Rein and Traith realize they must fight this foe. The vampires are humanity's only hope, but their battle may yet end in tragedy.
