Visions from the past were hidden in her dreams, a strange land with nine kings. Every night Caitlyn O'Neal would wake and wonder just what they meant to her and what she might have forgotten, until a chance rummage through old boxes brought to light the part of her that was missing. Julian Deveraux had sworn to protect her, put his life's effort into making sure she stayed safe, and the knowledge she held of the vampires of old never fell into the wrong hands. He thought he had done what he could to ensure it, but he was wrong. Caitlyn's draw to the ocean-side mansion is something she can no longer ignore, but with her arrival also comes the appearance of the red-eyed vampire Creolas. Is this dark man there to harm her or help her, and if he's a threat, is Julian strong enough to keep Caitlyn as safe as needed?
