Jack McPhail is a man on the run from his past, a drifter who lands by accident in a sleepy outback Australian town called Banjo Crossing. Jack - almost despite himself - becomes slowly drawn into the town, its community, its characters, and its concerns. He's on the brink of falling in love with Mardi, a young widow and owner of the local coffee shop, when the community is confronted and divided by an unexpected development. A coal mining company has come to town, intent on buying up the local properties to build an open cut mine.

Paige, an aimless college freshman, joins an Averus-obsessed club on campus to get closer to a TA named Toby. But things go from flirty to fatal when they actually encounter the youngest Averus, Nico, and Toby is badly wounded. Desperate to save his life, Paige makes a deal with Nico. If he turns Toby into a vampire, she’ll supply the infamous murderer with her own blood. Now, as students begin to disappear, and the tension between vampires and humans rises, Paige is secretly harboring two Averus vampires in her dorm room, both of whom seem interested in more than just her blood.
