The apocalypse is imminent. But there's hope-and her name is Ashlee. She has come from the future to prevent the Grey Lords from destroying human civilization. But she's young and untrained, a stranger in a very strange (to her) world...and being a vampire, she has hungers she cannot ignore. Her struggle will lead her and a loose group of freedom fighters to a showdown in the snowbound Hamptons, where the fate of mankind hangs in the balance.
