The eleventh part of the Saga of Darren Shan – one boy's terrifying journey from human to half-vampire to Vampire Prince. Darren's going home. Back to where everything started. The town's changed a lot in the years that he's been away – but then, so has Darren. Plagued by nightmares of what the future seems to hold, Darren feels uneasy revisiting the place where he was re-born as a child of the night, as though the universe (as though destiny) is plotting to throw something very nasty at him on the streets of his old home. It is.
