Descriere
When historian Diana Bishop opens an alchemical manuscript in the Bodleian Library, it's an unwelcome intrusion of magic into her carefully ordered life. Herself a witch of impeccable lineage, she has unwittingly opened up a world she's kept at bay for years; one of powerful witches, destructive daemons and long-lived vampires. Sensing the significance of her discovery, the creatures gather in Oxford, among them the enigmatic Matthew Clairmont, a vampire genticist. Diana is inexplicably drawn to him and, in a shadowy world of half-truths and old enmities, she ties herself to him without fully understanding the ancient line they are crossing...
