When an ancient vampire starts hunting and collecting young women in Pine View County, Texas for his cloud, Sheriff Garrett Lambert must end the destruction. This task becomes even more urgent when the vampire's purpose for being there becomes clear-to make the silver-haired werewolf his familiar. If Sheriff Lambert cannot find and kill the vampire, someone very dear to him will be lost forever.

With the help of his teenage daughter, Paige, best friend, Deputy Ty Jackson, an English professor who specializes in the occult and folklore, a Native American of the indigenous Cato tribe, and an elemental witch with the gift of sight who is a dependent of Marie Laveau, Garrett becomes the hunter.
