About this ebook
It should be peacetime. It is not. A generation of newly turned vampires, drunk on strength they have never had to earn, is testing the boundaries of a world with no humans left to punish them. And in the ruins of the Malinovka citadel, Martin finds proof that Pagan Myrtle — the ancient conspiracy he and his family exterminated decades ago, root and branch — has come back from the dead with a weapon no one saw coming: a way to kill a nuevo-vampire mind.
The hunt takes Martin and his pack across a destroyed planet, from the irradiated dead zone of the Negev, where the psychic network that binds his species falls silent, to freezing Ural mountains. Old allies fall. New gifts surface. And somewhere in the wreckage of a war he thought he had already won, Martin has to find his daughter before Pagan Myrtle destroys her.
Grief, fury, and the particular loneliness of ruling a world you never wanted come together in the eighth novel of the Trieste Family Series — sardonic, savage, and unflinching about what survives when a species finally runs out of enemies but itself.

About the author
Born in and living in Australia, Mark joined the military upon completing high school. With an engineering degree, working on high-technology systems, Mark travelled the world while advancing his knowledge in science and engineering. Following a simple request from a friend to confirm the 'science' in a fictional military book, Mark realised he was well placed to develop his own first military fiction book in the style of Dale Brown.
Mark soon wondered what it would be like in a world where vampires are real. The Trieste Family follows this simple concept.
