No one should give birth in a coffin, yet Catherine Dugat, a vampire, awakens in her blood-filled tomb in New Orleans with her future foretold in the pearl white egg floating to the surface. Thus begins the story of the convergence of three worlds, and the profound redemption that will threaten the dominance of one of the world's most powerful vampires, Lucius Marcellus. Lucius' legendary life story began 2000 years ago when he was bitten by a powerful vampire while in his mother's womb. His gifts are revealed as he crafts a life of great achievement, and is eventually abducted by Aliens. Through his story, largely taken from actual events and the Holy Bible, we learn about the vampires' relationship to the Biblical Nephilim and how they came into being, and the interference of the Alien race in God's plan for man. His journey includes encounters with a "who's who's" of mankind including Jesus, Joan of Arc, famous artists and innovators, and world leaders. Lucius settles in New Orleans in 1920. He meets and is smitten by Catherine Dugat, and their mutual destinies are sealed. As Catherine's unusual offspring grows, he reads the Bible, becomes morally prescient, and gives his soul to God. Soon, an astonishing event reveals the child's transformative purpose in life, thus insuring his inevitable threat to Lucius.
