From Booklist

In the latest St. Germain romance, the vampire-hero, alias Sanat Ji Mani, lives in Delhi at the end of the fourteenth century. With him are his faithful servant Rojire and Avasa Dani, a young Indian woman abandoned by her husband; and enemies surround them. The relatives of the corrupt sultan are constantly demanding high taxes from him, and the brutal warlord Timur-i is approaching Delhi, intent on sacking the city. Rojire and Avasa Dani, the latter of whom Sanat Ji Mani has turned into a vampire, flee the city at his urgings. He plans to follow them shortly. But he isn't fast enough, and he is captured by Timur-i, who has heard of his talent as a healer. In captivity, Sanat Ji Mani meets Tulsi Kil, a bewitching slave girl, and the two escape together. The story takes a long time to get going, but hardened St. Germainians will be happy to see him back in action when the time comes. Kristine Huntley
