The 7th book in the Vampire Chronicles. Vampires, witchcraft and voodoo come together in this vivid, exotic and terrifying novel

Louis is a vampire tortured by guilt. His status as a killer has left him conflicted for much of his immortal life, but after the murder of Claudia, his beloved child vampire, he spirals into a state of depression. And in a moment of desperation he decides to bring her back with the help of the beautiful witch Merrick.

To save Louis' sanity, Merrick must use black magic to call up the ghost of Claudia - however dangerous this may be. But in the dark unknown of the underworld there are other spirits who will not lie still, and her search takes her close to the edge of peril.
Industry Reviews
Rice writes with a captivating elegance and a mordant wit. She can create fear in the dark but her most dangerous gift is that the shivers sent down the spine are most sensual * Literary Review *
Rice knows what her readers want - scene after scene of magic and conjuring, with a liberal sprinkling of horror and eroticism * Times Literary Supplement *
Rice's writing is wonderfully imaginative and as creepily splendid as a hot-house orchid * Sunday Times *
Rice's witches are sensual glamorous beings, bisexual and hedonistic, whose power is a knife that cuts both ways * GQ *
Sensuous... A steaming brew of vampires and witches * Los Angeles Tmes *
