The Rising : Awakening

By D. Ann Hall

Samuel's been haunted all his life by a mysterious woman. While hunting for her burial in the deserts of Egypt he meets the vampire Kesha, and steps into a dark world never deemed possible.

What's buried in the sand has slept for centuries. Some things are never meant to be unearthed...

When Egyptologist, Samuel Clayton inherits a gold talisman with unusual markings, he vows to uncover its secrets. Where did it come from? What do they mean? And why upon receiving it did a flood of forgotten memories and the ethereal red-headed beauty - who had seduced him in his youth - return with malice?

An alliance with a shady organisation, a team of scientists with agendas and nightmarish visions plague him. Undeterred and locked within a destiny that will either consume or destroy him, he finds himself face to face with a Vampire, whose very existence is tied to his past.

She was his past, she haunts his present, and she will be his future...

A thrilling tale of archaeology, ancient Egypt, vampires and the supernatural with a Sci-fi twist.
