In a town haunted by the specter of vampires, a sadistic painter tries to drain the hope from a perpetually optimistic heart. A battle of the wills and wits ensues - rather like Ann Rice vs Abbott & Costello.

The town of Radostdale is on edge. Strange things are happening, unnatural things. Many explanations have been offered, but one word has seized the town's imagination - vampire.
Except for Karl. His imagination has been seized by the girl in the paintings.
All this suits Iris Blackstock just fine. A celebrated painter whose specialty is depictions of human suffering and cruelty, her imagination is intimately familiar with demons. In every painting, hatred and pain are countered only by the complete indifference of a single repeated figure. A cold, unattainable beauty who bears the face of Lilith, her daughter. And Iris knows that being in love with a cold, unattainable beauty is a special kind of suffering.
Can Karl survive the machinations of the cruel painter? Or will his heartache become the subject of her next brushstroke? Can Lilith learn to see the world through new eyes and open her heart to the possibilities? Will vampires drain their lifeblood before morning?
