Rowan Mayfair, a beautiful woman, a brilliant practitioner of neurosurgery-aware that she has special powers but unaware that she comes from an ancient line of witches-finds the drowned body of a man off the coast of California and brings him to life. He is Michael Curry, who was born in New Orleans and orphaned in childhood by fire on Christmas Eve, who pulled himself up from poverty, and who now, in his brief interval of death, has acquired a sensory power that mystifies and frightens him. As these two, fiercely drawn to each other, fall in love and-in passionate alliance-set out to solve the mystery of her past and his unwelcome gift, an intricate tale of evil unfolds. Anne Rice offers more than just a story she creates myth.”- The Washington Post Book World From the beloved author of the Vampire Chronicles, the first installation of her spellbinding Mayfair Chronicles-the inspiration for the hit television series!.
