While trying to recover the fearsome Lucifractor, Ethan and Benny learn the truth about what - and whom - they're up against. Ethan must face his worst fears - literally - and his only hope is to trust in his connection to his friends, and harness his growing psychic abilities. With the lives of every vampire in town at risk, the Council flees - taking a few unexpected guests along for the ride, and Ethan must ask an old friend, and an even older enemy, to return and lend a hand. The battle is on to take control of Whitechapel, and – fangs or not – nobody is safe.
