Four stories, all fairly intriguing, involving vampiric seduction. 'The Nightwatchers' is unusual in that a gay man and a lesbian are friends and are involved. 'Carnival' is the most enjoyable story in the bunch, well written and featuring an unusual set of characters.
Aspiring actor Philip Rutledge is looking only for a role in a local theater production when he finds something much more tempting in the arms of mysterious Kevin Lockhart.

Suddenly, the life Roland has known hangs in the balance as the necklace inside the box reveals the promise of unearthly power-and untold bliss.
