Letters of George Cornewall Lewis, to Various Friends (1870)

In a world of turmoil that humans do not understand, there lies a family lineaa bloodline that is at risk. Vampires are at war for the one thing that they wish to have: a rare bloodstone that is owned by the Galouie clanaa clan that is a family, a family that can reproduce and keep the house living, while the other vampire clans are dying off. Passed down from generation to generation, it is now up to Malarie Galouie to uphold the family name and protect what is theirs. If the stone should fall into the wrong hands, all would be lost and the mortals would have to paya]with their lives.
