Lowen the Dark Man - a ghost from the planet Khariton who possesses human hosts - has captured Theo, imprisoned the Red Man, and has turned almost an entire city into his army of Sleeper Devils. Wyn and Ms. Crystobal have planned a daring rescue attempt for Theo and the Red Man, but they cannot pull it off without the help of Mary Paige, the young Blood Vivicanti with the photographic memory.

Mary Paige and the Red Man make a home in the Locomotive Deadyards, where they wait in hopeful expectation for Wyn and Ms. Crystobal’s return. Yet when the two go missing, Mary Paige and the Red Man suspect that Lowen the Dark Man has captured them. She and the Blood Thirster from Khariton must rescue their friends from the Black Building where Lowen has been building an army of Sleeper Devils along with his new monstrous creation, the Devicanti.

At 17 years old, Mary Paige has become one of the most powerful creatures on the planet - a Blood Vivicanti. Scientifically recreated in an underground layer by Wyn (the first Blood Vivicanti and brilliant, billionaire engineer), Mary Paige discovers that her speed and strength have increased, but so has her appetite for blood. Drinking blood comes with a surprising side effect: Blood Memories.

Mary Paige’s photographic memory has made her a powerful Blood Vivicanti. Unlike the others, Wyn and Theo, she is the only one who can retain her Blood Memories and the talents of her victims. But her power took her too far and she nearly murdered a whole family in their sleep. Drunk on power and blood, Mary Paige then drank the black blood of a Sleeper Devil and was left for dead at the edge of a cliff.

Mary Paige fell from a cliff and Wyn saved her by making her a Blood Vivicanti. Now Mary Paige is falling again - only this time for Theo, a handsome Blood Vivicanti who possesses wisdom, grace, and raw animal power. Theo teaches Mary Paige how to pierce her victim’s neck with her tongue, how much blood to drink, and how to eat the right kind of Blood Memories. But the more blood she drinks, and the more Blood Memories she eats, Mary Paige discovers that her photographic memory has made her the most powerful Blood Vivicanti.

An epic, two-part dark fantasy poem inspired by Bram Stoker's Dracula.
