The world is about to be taken over by an ancient race bent on the destruction of all human life—only supernatural beings will be spared.
Aeden and Lyall MacKay, Scottish vampire brothers, living in a world that now accepts vampires exist, find themselves leading the challenge to the Ancient’s mad scheme. When the small town of Aberglen, Scotland, is threatened by marauding winged creatures, police inspector Alistair MacFarlane is more than keen to enlist the MacKay brothers’ help. Alistair has been in love with Aeden ever since their first meeting, but Aeden, despite his attraction to Alistair, is reluctant to take a mortal lover.
Their lives are inescapably entwined when the threat of worldwide destruction becomes imminent and humans and vampires must fight alongside one another to overcome the Ancients’ devastating Doomsday machine. Despite the danger that surrounds them, new relationships based on love and trust are forged. But is the combined force of mortal and immortal enough to defeat the seemingly unstoppable power of the Ancients and their bloodthirsty allies?

Wow vampires and gargoyles at war made for a very exciting story. Brothers Aeden and Lyall MacKay are Scottish vampires turned centuries ago. Father and uncles killed and Aeden and Lyall taken and changed. When they were strong enough, they fled from the vampire clan holding them prisoner and free returned to their home.
When young people are found murdered and ripped apart Inspector Alistair MacFarlane comes to Aeden and Lyall for help. Alistair knows that the brothers are vampires and although vampires are recognized and legal the brothers still don’t openly reveal themselves. Alistair has been in love with Aeden since he first met him but Aeden refuses to accept a relationship between them, a mortal and a vampire are not likely to have a HEA.
After a visit to the morgue to view the bodies, the brothers know with certainty that their deaths were caused by supernaturals specifically gargoyles, who supposedly disappeared a long time ago. Trying to capture one and question it about who is responsible for the chaos throughout the world they immediately disintegrate. Aeden contacts the Vampire Council to come up with a plan, but the entire council is destroyed.
People are dying all over the world, tornadoes, earthquakes and all manner of disasters are devastating the world making it essential to locate the ones responsible before humans cease to exist. Communications have stopped if not for vampire’s ability to communicate mentally there would be no way to plan a way to stop the madness.
Aeden finally stops thinking about human/vampire relationships and accepts that he loves Alistair but is it too little too late with the world heading for annihilation. Even Lyall finds a human nearly dead after an attack by the gargoyles but all they can do is fight together to save lives. Word is that it is Ancient’s but like gargoyles they have not been heard of for centuries.
Now Aeden and Lyall can no longer keep their identities a secret, it will take humans and vampires working together to find and destroy the ones responsible for the hundreds of deaths and destruction.
When they kill one gargoyle dozens more appear and attack and while the vampires have so far been coming out ahead, how long will that last.
This book was quite a change from the vampire books I generally read, it is both a mystery to solve and a possible HEA for two vampires and two humans. Getting to the bottom of who is causing everything was quite a surprise. There is suspense, violence, sex, lies and betrayal.
