Written in the Blood

Fifteen years after a madman hunted down her parents, Leah Wilde is determined to find the truth behind the killer's monstrous powers. She is one of the last in a line of shapeshifters called the Long Lives. The few who remain are scattered around the globe. Leah and her mother, Hannah, are determined to find them and to save them from extinction. But they are not alone in their search. For centuries an ancient being has thrived by killing members of the Long Lives. Over a hundred years ago in Budapest, a boy named Izsak witnessed unspeakable sacrifices within his orphanage, all to appease this ravenous beast. Today the monster stalks America, preying on the young in its quest for immortality.
