When vampire lord Stephan Kiernan dies in a bizarre mishap, his three former consorts struggle to find their own way. The eldest seeks revenge, while another is drawn, almost against her will, to fight for rulership of the vampire enclave. Renee, the youngest, revives her long-dormant ability to move through time. The alternate past holds old enemies, lost love, and a younger version of herself.

Meanwhile, the next generation of Renee’s family must come to terms with their heritage. Twelve-year-old Joelle travels from 2042 to 1989, setting in motion a chain of events that leads Renee to take a desperate gamble. Her own innate abilities, along with the secret technology guarded by her family for over a century, will both be needed to evade a lethal menace that has almost been forgotten in Renee’s own timeline.

Apie autorių

Katherine X. Rylien began writing fiction as a teenager, in spiral-bound notebooks (her teachers assumed she was taking notes). She completed the first draft of Blood Relations, recounting the early life of Renee Cadieux-Smith, in 1980. Over the next decade, she wrote two sequels, Vicissitudes and Revisitations.

Forty years later, after a plethora of other adventures, Katherine took these hand-written manuscripts down from the attic during the Covid-19 pandemic. 2020 saw a complete rewrite of all three volumes, with considerable revision for style and detail, yet Renee’s story is essentially unchanged. In the process of preparing the trilogy for publication, Katherine became convinced that there was a forth book in the series—her answer to the question, “What happens next?”

Katherine is also the author of Vampire Dreams, a collection of short stories. If you enjoy her work, she'd love to hear from you at [e-mail]. Or connect on Facebook. She rarely turns down a friend invite, unless it’s that rich, lonely widower whose backstory is so suspiciously lacking in detail ;-)
