"We both know the Vampire Council turns a blind eye to us fogging the mind of the occasional human "pet," for a dalliance. Sampling their blood is the object, of course.
The very meaning of the word "pet," marks it out as being a fleeting thing; in that we pet them...and forget them.
But don't you see, beautiful one? If you persist, once the desire for first blood and passion is quenched; you will have crossed the line...and created a Thrall..."
CHRISTIAN DE CAZALES IS A VAMPIRE WITH A BAD REPUTATION...
Beautiful, debauched and selfish, he is a constant problem and a thorn-in-the-flesh of his maker: The Grand Master, Garth - head of the Vampire Council.
Still, for the past few months, all has been quiet at the country mansion Christian shares with his lover, Saul. Far, far too quiet...
Trouble is brewing, and it arrives in the shape of a glorious, Titian haired beauty.
Soon, all hell breaks loose, with Christian involving the hapless Saul in a sin that could lose them everything, including their lives.
Now it seems as if Garth will have no choice but to imprison and sentence his own firstborn. And this is only the start of his woes. There is a traitor amongst them; and troubles are looming large in the vampire nation, with Christian as the catalyst. Dissenters are banding together. Their aim: to overthrow and destroy the ancients; and turn humans into little more than caged cattle.
The Vampire Council are forced out of the shadows, and their lives of libidinous excess; to fight to the death for all they hold dear. And while Garth's power drains away in the fight of all fights, Christian is helpless - alone and in danger...
IN THRALL IS THE SWEEPING HISTORY OF THREE GENERATIONS OF VAMPIRES, AND THE COUNCIL SET UP TO PROTECT THEM IN THE MORTAL WORLD. THE STORY MOVES FROM 16TH CENTURY FRANCE TO REGENCY ENGLAND, AND ON TO THE PRESENT DAY, WHERE AN INNOCENT HUMAN STUMBLES INTO THEIR SENSUOUS WORLD QUITE BY CHANCE, AND IS LOST...
