Dead men are filled with life.
Eleven years ago, world-renowned guitarists Hale and Aleksandr learned that monsters were real. Hale lost the love of his life, and Aleksandr lost his brother.
When the carnage was over, they vowed to make sure no one else had to go through what they did.
A few months ago, another band's bassist has been killed at a festival, and she wasn't the only one. Hale suspects a vampire was responsible, and that their drummer — the singer of his new band — knows more about it than she's letting on.
When a member of their new act is also attacked by a vampire, everything Hale has tried to keep in the shadows comes to light.
Hale has made a bargain with the gods for the power to heal. But he can't save everyone.
The dead are rising. The gods are angry. And even they won't be Hale's biggest problem.
Note: This book contains depictions of substance abuse and self-harm.
