Synopsis

This gripping thriller takes you into a world where innocent men and women alike are irresistibly corrupted, where newborn babies are kidnapped, and where blood is the ultimate aphrodisiac. It takes you into a world stalked by dazzlingly handsome and elegant James Whistler, master seducer, who finds his perfect partner in exquisitely beautiful Lourdes Perez, a cohort who matches his appetite for erotic expression. It takes you into a world shattered by the struggle between good and evil as Nick Santos, the one man who knows how darkly dangerous Whistler is, puts his life, and the lives of the woman he loves and the baby he has just fathered, on the edge of the abyss. And in a desperate race against time and a seemingly omnipotent adversary, Nick battles mortal peril that has never been closer - or more terrifying.
