An ancient, dark presence makes itself known in Seattle. Through an anonymous tip, Officer Brady and Forrest Wollinsky, a Vampire Hunter, discover a city councilor's corpse. The weapon used is a medieval torture device left behind as the murderer's calling card, which is a taunting, bold clue. Forrest immediately senses something frighteningly familiar about the ritual and who the perpetrator is. One vampire comes to mind from nearly a century earlier and from halfway around the world. However, the vampire isn't the only ancient roaming the Seattle streets. Something worse has emerged. The combination of the two forces is powerful enough to make the remaining four vampire owners of the Nocturnal Trinity nightclub tremble. Is their inherent fear capable of making them set aside their differences and align themselves with a Vampire Hunter in order to survive?
