Abby Hart might seem like an ordinary medical examiner, but she's hiding a dark secret. She's a vampire, and while she lost her entire family long ago, she still struggles to contain her need to feed.

When he finds the victims of a 'blood farm' in an abandoned building, Detective Mark Gregory is reminded of something terrible that happened to him many years earlier. As he starts to investigate the case, however, he discovers a mysterious church in the heart of the city. The church is supposed to be empty, but strange figures have been seen entering the building at night.

Soon, Abby and Mark are thrown together as they race to stop the plans of a deadly cult. But when she finally discovers the cult's plan, will Abby be able to resist temptation? Or will she let the world burn, just for one last chance to get her family back? And is an even more dangerous enemy lurking in the shadows, waiting for a chance to strike?
