Alex Cross has never been a vampire believer. He must change his mind, however, when it is discovered that two joggers were killed in a way that alluded to a gruesome ritual. Someone has committed a number of strange killings that seem to be the work of vampires because they have a strong belief in them. Even the FBI is perplexed and the local police are appalled.
After accepting the case, Cross enters a realm of shadowy organizations and pretenders, populated with posers and performers, as well as a person so insane that they have passed the boundary from actual blood relations to dark ritual. Concurrently, Cross is being pursued, harassed, and threatened by the Mastermind, a deadly super-criminal from his past who threatens all he values. Never before has Cross been in more danger or closer to defeat. In a startling denouement, Alex Cross has to endure a lethal encounter before learning the terrible truth about the Mastermind.
