During her quest, Caro discovers an old book whose texts seems to have the power of shaking Christianity and the entire human race.

At the start of the book’s story, Caroline Clifford, who is commonly referred to as Caro, is introduced as a tour guide in London. She does not believe in the existence of vampires in the human world. But, when a vampire hunter approaches her following the brutal killing of her uncle at an archaeological site in Bulgaria, Caro begins to fear her worst nightmares.

An ancient Ottoman vampire is about to die from a very rare disease and is waiting for his last breath in a compound without windows, located at around the distance of a hemisphere.
