He is a famous writer; he owns a successful magazine and runs it with his brother, Benny; He lives in a beautiful beach home in Southern California, and he's good friends with the local rock radio host. However, something has been bothering Marcus of late. There's been a void in his life, and he doesn't know how to fill that missing puzzle piece. However, that is about to change when he meets the mysterious Sofia De Luca. A gorgeous new waitress at his favorite restaurant, the two instantly hit it off, and set off on a whirlwind romance. On top of that, his latest recruit to his magazine, the stunning Chelsea Denato, quickly becomes his best friend. Just when life seems to be turning for the better for Marcus, Sofia and Chelsea clash, and Marcus finds himself in the middle of a nightmare when he learns a terrifying secret about Sofia. With the world he knows quickly disappearing and a monstrous creature killing the people of Del Mar, CA, where Marcus lives, the writer must ask himself if his love for Sofia will be enough to get through the storm that is settling over the breathtaking beach town. The oceans will run red with the blood of the towns citizens if Marcus cannot find a way to stop the monster from destroying his home.
