Emergence

Since humanity accepted the existence of vampires, life has become impossibly more difficult for Deacon Cain, former Marksdale police officer and current member of the Nox Squad. Nox Liberi—Latin for Night Children—are running amuck in the city, turning humans into mindless addicts. Vamps have turned their alluring pheromones into a profitable enterprise, a rising street drug. For an ex-cop like Deacon, the existence of vamp venom is one he can’t and won’t tolerate. 

Joining Perimore Corporation to fight in the Nox Squad, Deacon spends his time putting rogue vamps behind Perimore’s bars and ridding the streets of venom. But a mission gone wrong leads Deacon to Hope Bradley, a Nox with secrets that might be Perimore’s downfall. Because Hope is Deacon’s future, and she’ll lead him on the path to a truth that will change his life and his world forever.
