Gerusalemme, 1191. Stephan Sincai, in contrasto con le Regole tramandate dagli Anziani, prese sotto la sua custodia una vampira creata, la giovane Asharti, salvandola dal suo destino. Rubius, il più Anziano, sosteneva che l’uccisione vampire created was necessary not only to maintain the balance between humans and vampires, but also because it created vampires went mad. Stephan wanted to prove to the elders that they were wrong, but his failure with Asharti had resulted in the formation of an army of vampires. Centuries later, to atone for their sins, Sincai decided to take a vow of abstinence, at the monastery of Mirso. Here he was subjected to Rubius a hard workout, and was assigned the task of eradicating the cell of vampires created that threatened to take control of the British government. Stephan thus becomes the persecutor, a strong machinery of death of hard training and great power.
Wiltshire, 1822. On the trail Kilkenny, vampire created by Asharti, Stephan reaches the small town of Cheddar Gorse, in whose area it is spreading a strange epidemic, attributed to the followers of Kilkenny. In the woods surrounding the persecutor is surprised by the screams of a woman. Meanwhile, the young Ann Van Helsing sneak out of the house, she uses only enjoy walking at night, since it is widely considered to be a witch. Ann assists in the woods to a terrifying scene: a young woman lying on the ground on which it is bent a man who sucks the blood from his throat. Van Helsing is saved by the arrival of Stephan, who, confused by the terrified eyes of the woman lets out the vampire. The woman killed was Molly, the ragazza della locanda. In pochi attimi Stephane ed Ann si ritrovano circondati da una folla di uomini, che accusano dell’omicidio la giovane Van Helsing.

Al centro di questo romanzo, la Squires pone il senso di colpa di un uomo che darebbe la vita pur di salvare il mondo. Cosa insolita per un vampiro, che d’altra parte alterna due personalità: quella del Persecutore, addestrato per distruggere ciò che egli stesso ha creato, e quella dell’uomo premuroso, innamorato e disposto al sacrificio per ottenere il perdono di Rubius. L’incontro con Ann Van Helsing, anch’essa tormentata dalla sua maledizione, unisce le due anime, aprendo gli occhi a Stephan sulle vere intenzioni di Rubius.
La storia è avvincente and adventurous, and do not miss the excitement and romance. It must be said, however, that the torture inflicted on the vampire Sincai excessive insistence on explicit sex scenes are sometimes in bad taste, even for the large number of pages filled in this way.
