In the realm of the Dark-Hunters, there is a code of honor that even immortal bad boys must follow:
Harm no human. Drink no blood. Never fall in love.

But every now and again, a Dark-Hunter thinks himself above the Code. That's when I'm summoned. Who am I? I'm the one thing the fearless fear. Step over the line and it's my wrath you will face. Nothing can touch me. Nothing can sway me. I am relentless and unfeeling.

Or so I thought until I met a female Dark-Hunter who goes by the name of Danger - it's not just her name, it's how she lives her life. She doesn't trust me at all. And who could blame her? She alone knows that I'm here to be judge, jury, and, most likely, executioner of her friends. Yet she is my key to saving some of them. Without her, they all will die.

Dangereuse St. Richard is a deadly distraction. Something about her is reawakening a heart I thought was long dead. But in a race against evil, the only hope mankind has is that I do my duty. And how can I do my duty when it means that I will have to sacrifice the only woman I've ever loved?

And for something a little extra, at the back of the paperback is the short story "The Beginning" which explains the beginning of the Dark-Hunters. You can also find "The Beginning" in the Dark-Hunter Companion and to find out more about the leader of the Dark-Hunters read Acheron.
