Plot Summary
Malcolm "Mac" Reiker lost his faith in the dust of Afghanistan, where prayers went unanswered and children died despite his best efforts. Now working night security at the Harmon Museum of Antiquities, he self-medicates with whiskey and tactical precision, fighting nightmares that never fade.
Until she arrives.
Lilienne appears in his apartment at 3:17 AM—a predator feeding on his essence through intimate encounters that leave him drained and marked with strange symbols. But behind her hunger lies an unexpected truth: she's as much prisoner as predator, bound for centuries to a secret order within the Church.
As Mac investigates the mysterious Ordo Noctis, he uncovers a conspiracy spanning millennia. The museum's curator, the enigmatic Dr. Weston, safeguards artifacts that aren't merely religious relics—they're tools for controlling supernatural entities. And Mac has been chosen as the focal point for a ritual that will permanently bind all otherworldly forces under the Ordo's control.
With unlikely allies—a controversial academic, homeless veterans whose "delusions" are actually supernatural awareness, and the very entity sent to weaken him—Mac must disrupt the ritual before the upcoming celestial alignment. But true liberation may require a sacrifice beyond anything he imagined: the final boundaries between human and supernatural.
