Vicki Nelson has received the call that no daughter ever wants
to receive--that her mother has died. Marjory Nelson's coworkers at
the Queen's University Life Science Department told her that she
suffered a heart attack, and that they'd be waiting for Vicki to
arrive in Kingston to make the funeral arrangements. But what
begins as a personal tragedy turns into the most terrifying case of
Vicki's career, when her mother's body disappears mysteriously from
the funeral home. Someone at the University is determined to learn
the secret of life after death...and they've decided to make
Vicki's mother part of their horrifying experiments.

An evil being has been sealed away for centuries in a
sarcophagus never meant to be opened, waiting patiently for his
chance to rise again. Now, brought to the Egyptology Department of
Toronto's Royal Ontario Museum, the seals and spells that
imprisoned him chipped away from his discoverers, he has reached
forth to claim the minds and souls of Toronto's unsuspecting
citizens. And only three people had any sense that something was
wrong....
For Henry Fitzroy, it began with terrifying images of the sun, a
marker of death for a vampire. Fearing for his sanity, he turns to
his sometimes-lover, private investigator Vicki Taylor, for help.
As the two struggle to cope with Henry's obsession, Vicki's closest
friend and former partner Mike Celluci, is following up on two
mysterious deaths at the museum, certain that a force from beyond
the grave is responsible for everything.

magic--along with another, unexpected ally...
Henry Fitzroy, the illegitimate son of King Henry VIII, has
learned over the course of his long life how to blend with humans,

Mike would not survive the ancient force of chaos that has been
unleashed upon the world--but in doing so, his identity may be
exposed, and his life forfeit.
