In a divided city where vampires rule the night and humans cling to daylight, a single night every year brings them together:
The Crimson Masquerade, a grand, enchanted ball where humans and vampires dance under a sacred truce.
One rule:
No mask may be removed until dawn.
One consequence:
A vampire may choose their eternal consort by recognizing their soulmate's aura — not their face.
And this year, something goes terribly wrong.
