Tyler's a member of the Ruby House, though he's never spent much time there thanks to the bullies who have made his life hell. He might be a Vampire but he's not immortal and he's most certainly not undead. He might need blood but he'd never kill someone for it.

For the last four years Daniel has been Tyler's friend, and lover. Thanks to him Tyler hasn't starved to death and had a safe place to go when the bullying got too much for him to handle. Their love is about to be put to the test when the King of Ruby is found dead, a knife through his heart.

In order to clear Tyler the two must solve the mystery of who killed the king, how and why. Can Tyler finally stand up for himself, and prove what Daniel knows to be true? Tyler's no killer, though he might be the strongest man alive, if he could only find it withing himself.
