Lions of Autumn

If you're Seear Moon, that question may be a bit more complicated than it once was.

Seear struggles through a difficult, but subdued existence until a different reality is suddenly thrust upon her. Seear Moon is the reincarnation of a vampire ruler. Not just any ruler, either. Bellona, the beloved of The Twelve. For hundreds of years, the name Bellona was feared by both humans and vampires alike. Now, it is carried by one very confused young woman.

First in dreams and strange events, then in the arrival of her principal followers, Seear is slowly maneuvered into the position she abandoned three centuries before. Bellona's followers, known to others of their kind as simply The Twelve, withhold all details of Seear's former life and death. As events culminate in the disappearance of a close family member, Seear must solve the puzzle of who she was and decide if her true place is with The Twelve.
