    Summary

    A devout but lonely priest and an ancient, sophisticated vampire engage in a dangerous game of psychological and sensual warfare across the consecrated threshold of a church, culminating in a catastrophic act of mutual transgression that binds them together.

    When faith erodes and the last light gutters, the only presence left in the dark is the one you were sworn to resist. And in that confrontation, despair is not the only thing that keeps you awake—there is also a terrible, thrilling recognition. The line between shepherd and monster blurs, and a new, damning communion is born from the ashes of devotion.

    The Hemlock Vespers is a story of psychological seduction, the corrosion of isolation, and the dark, binding intimacy that flourishes when the only one who truly sees you is the enemy who orchestrated your fall.
