Eric has some memory problems. Do not even remember what I ate yesterday, let alone if he did not know how many years ago, to become a vampire.

But when you finally decide to settle, that's his desire for her fades and grows towards the older sister piccola di Tabitha, Rachel. Come se non bastasse, Eric ha ucciso involontariamente un licantropo che lo ha attaccato e adesso un branco di lupi lo insegue per la città in cerca di vendetta.
