Ebon City: Death and the Maiden

(Second Edition, Hardcover)

The vampire Ezekiel has lived for over four hundred years, satiating his bloodlust by killing evildoers. Plagued with the deaths he's caused and tormented by his vampire kin, Ezekiel travels the world and surrounds himself with art and theatre to distract himself from his infernal existence. Settling in the gothic city of Ebon, he meets an inexperienced psychic named Angela Thorn who possesses destructive magic beyond her control. Feeling sympathy for the tormented young woman, Ezekiel takes her under his wing and teaches her how to control her powers. Romance ignites between them, and Ezekiel breaks vampire law by revealing his identity to Angela, incurring the wrath of his fellow vampires.
