Vial Darkness: The Monstrous Cost of Eternal Life

By Beck Browning

Between Two Fires meets The Passage in a thriller that rewrites the vampire mythos.

An ancient vial stolen from the Crucifixion doesn't grant eternal life. It unleashes a vampire-like curse.

For two thousand years, the world has unknowingly harbored a monstrous secret. A desperate act of love by a boy named Asher birthed an insatiable bloodlust, a plague passed down through centuries. Now, a tormented soul named Lucien bears the horrifying weight of this ancient curse, his every moment a battle against the unending hunger.

In present-day Jerusalem, brilliant scientist Dr. James Armstrong discovers the legend of the vial. Obsessed with conquering death, he sees not a relic of dark mythology, but the biological key to his revolutionary anti-aging research. He dismisses the whispers of a curse, believing he can contain and control the vial's power within his Raleigh laboratory.

But the vial's hunger is not so easily contained.

As James's experiments begin, the ancient evil stirs. He soon learns that some legends are written in blood for a reason, and the tormented whispers of the vial's past victims become a terrifying premonition. By seeking to master death, Dr. Armstrong is about to unleash a vampire nightmare that will consume everything he holds dear.

A must-read for fans of Anne Rice's gothic lore, the epic scientific horror of The Passage, and the ancient evil of Between Two Fires.
