When the sun goes down, the true elite of the Upper East Side all head to one place: Bathory Academy, where the young ladies of the finest vampire families are trained in shapeshifting and luring their prey. Bathory’s reigning queen, Lilith Todd, is the daughter of a powerful vampire buinessman, and she knows exactly what she wants from life. She wants to look beautiful, for eternity. She wants to rule the school in peace and party ‘til the sun comes up with her gorgeous boyfriend, Jules. And she doesn’t want any New Blood upstarts standing in her way.

Enter Cally Monture, an unfortunate wannabe from a zip code Lilith wouldn’t be caught Undead in. When Cally’s challenge to Lilith leads to tragic results, Lilith is hungry for revenge.
