A haunting blend of Gothic horror, religious satire, and supernatural thriller, this is a bold, subversive story that pits faith against fangs in a battle for redemption. Two young Mormon missionaries, Gabriel and Luke, wake up in their apartment, dazed, blood-soaked--and sprouting fangs. Loyal to their devotion they attempt to carry on their mission, but they quickly learn their newfound thirst isn't just metaphorical. Bound by blood to an ancient, manipulative vampire called Bishop, the boys are thrust into a spiritual crisis that threatens their faith, their morality, and the souls they vowed to save. Each failed attempt to resist their monstrous urges pulls them deeper into a web of violence, seduction, and, at times, humorous, damnation. With Bishop's influence spreading across the small Oregon town like a plague, Gabriel and Luke must confront the seductive power of their transformation and make a harrowing choice: serve their new master and become harbingers of death or defy him--and risk eternal suffering to reclaim their morality.
