Being trapped there while a lunatic is on the loose is even worse.

Ex-cop Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels, ex-criminal Phineas Troutt, and ex-private eye Harry McGlade are all healing after a near-fatal encounter. But it's tough to mend when there's a serial killer prowling the halls at night, draining patients of their blood.

The psychosis is known as Renfield's syndrome. The psycho has eyes on Jack and her friends.

And they're about to learn that giving blood isn't always voluntary...
