The Gloaming: Blood of the Revenants #1
Some fire burns hotter in the darkness...
​
For readers of Deborah Harkness, Anne Rice, and Leigh Bardugo comes a darkly captivating urban fantasy where ancient rivalries, forbidden desire, and the dance between hunter and hunted grows ever more deadly.
​
Erin Conrad has learned to accept the fire that burns in her blood – a rare gift that makes her a vânător, capable of sensing and destroying the vampires that stalk her city. By day, she pours lattes at Jolt, the bookish coffee shop she co-owns. But by night, she hunts, driven by an instinct that fulfils and hollows her.
​
When her best friend is found dead miles away, his death staged to look like suicide, Erin refuses to accept the official explanation. As more bodies fall, she follows a bloody trail to two ancient vampires and discovers someone is recreating their most infamous kills – with her friends as the victims.
​
Her search seems hopeless, until a mysterious Scotsman appears in her hour of need. Despite everything she's sworn to destroy, Erin feels an undeniable attraction toward him – a burning desire that threatens the very identity she's built her life around. Their connection is as inexplicable as it is powerful, pulling her deeper into a hidden world she's only glimpsed before.
​
Caught between powerful vampires with centuries of history, Erin must unravel long-buried truths while a killer watches her every move. As old secrets come to light, passion ignites between unusual allies and she discovers a power unlike anything she's encountered before – one that awakens not just her abilities, but her heart.
​
In this dangerous game where old grudges dictate the rules and revelations unfold with each step, Erin faces an impossible choice: vengeance for those she's lost or a love that could transform everything – if she dares to embrace it.
​
The Gloaming is the first book in the Blood of the Revenants series.
