In this sequel to
The Night Inside, a vampire couple's relationship is tested by the modern world as a mysterious stranger hunts them down.
With a dark embrace from five-hundred-year-old vampire Dimitri Rozokov, Ardeth Alexander left behind her mortal life in Toronto. Now they are attempting to forge a new life in Banff, Alberta.-and They share an unspoken agreement not to feed on humans and hunt wild animals off the beaten paths of the national park instead. However, their new reality is far from easy, and elk blood can never fully satisfy their hunger. Angry and unhappy, Ardeth longs for the life she left behind and returns to Toronto.
But the machinations of a century-old Japanese vampire soon reunite the couple. Once a feudal lord, now a yakuza boss, Sademori Fujiwara shares his extraordinary life story. It is a tale that can answer the questions of love, mortality, and morality threatening to tear Ardeth and Dimitri apart for good. But the price for those answers is dangerously high...
"Baker writes about the vampires next door... they bicker over petty, everyday things. They are jealous when a partner flirts with someone. They worry about paying the rent... 'They're Canadian,' she says." -
The Vancouver Sun
"Baker evokes the various figures from Japanese culture familiar in the West-yakuza, samurai and medieval court ladies and their pillow books-but she goes beyond clichés and invests these characters with a solidity and poignancy that contrast sharply with the simpler Canadian horror of
The Night Inside. This is a more contemplative offering." -
