After all, much of his elite fighting force was destroyed by Wlodek and his allies on a single night.

The only thing worse than living is living forever. When seventeen-year-old Jason Harper enters the woods, he has no intention of leaving. Suicide is his endgame. Only the bullet never finds its mark, and Jason makes it out of the woods alive. Besides dirtied clothes and a few scratches, he leaves the woods unscathed. Except for one tiny bite mark on the side of his neck, everything seems to be normal -- well, as normal as can be expected when you're dragged into small-town life with an optimistic mother and her too-perfect boyfriend -- until nothing is. If he thought life was complicated before, now it's a living nightmare. Because vampires are real, and he's one of them. As the thirst for blood gets harder to ignore, Jason must learn to subdue the beast inside before it turns him into the monster he's always known himself to be. That is, if the demons of his past don't kill him first.
Imagine what it would be like if every single fragment of your memory is erased and all you know is that someone is trying to kill you. When Jason Harper wakes up in hospital, he has no knowledge of who or what he is and, more importantly, who had tried to kill him and caused the bloodbath at his house. It seems that a bullet fragment lodged in the brain does that to you. He has been informed of his name and that he is a psychiatrist by a disturbingly attractive detective sitting by his bedside. He assumes that he must have had patients, but knowledge of family and friends, colleagues, his past and his future is a total blank. He has nothing other than grim determination to help him piece together the puzzle that is his former life. A suspenseful, frightening road of unravelling his past and the people populating it, enfolds with many unsuspecting twists and turns. Some information comes as a shock and it is only when he delves into the darker side of his past that he is able to make some sense of the present. Harper will be profoundly tested on his ability to stay alive as well as his mental capacity to emotionally deal with his past.
