Fear grips London as dozens of clubbers die after taking a sinister new drug. But that's only the beginning. Hours later, the dead clubbers wake up - and it's open season on the living who are butchered for their blood.
Soon, London gives name to its terror: Vampires.
Jake Lawton, bitter and betrayed after the Iraq War, finds himself fighting another battle - against the growing army of immortal hunters and their human allies. Lawton joins forces with the journalist who brought about his downfall and the dealer tricked into distributing the drug.
Together they take on the spineless authorities, the ruthless cohorts, and the hungry dead.
But the vampire plague unleashed in London is nothing to what lurks beneath the streets ... waiting to be fed ... waiting to be resurrected ... waiting to reign once more over a city of human slaves.
