    About this series

    Monsters are not only real, they're organized.

    In New York City, they appear just like everyday people who in reality are part of the Family: an underworld of demons, magicians, and werewolves that run human trafficking, possession parlors, underground werewolf fights, slave labor, and numerous other illicit activities that cause innocent lives to be ruined.

    All of this is in service to the most dangerous creatures of all: vampires, indestructible beings who control the Family like evil gods. 

    The Family is ancient, powerful, and cruel.  

    But they are not unopposed.

    The Gardens is a quaint apartment complex in Queens. Hidden behind its facade is a village of magic and wonder, peopled by magicians, werewolves, and even one demon who have escaped the Family's clutches and now work in secret to liberate its victims. Though they cannot kill the vampires and end their reign, the leaders of the Gardens provide a safe haven for the oppressed.

    Eleanor Demidova is a young magician with a warm heart and a harsh mouth. She trains hard so she can become a great magician like her father, and one day grow strong enough to rescue people from the Family and continue the rebellion. 

    But when a unexpected visitor slips through the Gardens' defenses and reveals the existence of Jason Escoto, the son of the Gardens' founder, a man long known to be dead, Eleanor and her loved ones discover that there are worse things than vampires.

    For ghosts are real. And they are rising.

    May the Darkness Save Us.
