Lent is not so much a season for discipline as it is a season for transfiguration, a time for letting ourselves be illumined once again by the hope created by the Gospel. The light of that hope, which shines not only on Tabor but also on Golgotha, shows us the truth of silence, death, obedience, doubt, and repentance. And in that light, we see light—and recognize ourselves for the first time.

Stuntwoman Dawn Madison hasn't been on the best of terms with her father since her movie star mother died. Still, he is her dad, and when he vanishes while investigating the bizarre sighting - caught on film - of a supposedly long-dead child star, she comes home to Tinseltown to join the search for him. Working with his odd colleagues, she discovers an erotic and bloody underground society made up of creatures she thought existed only on the screen.

Second, her personal life isn't exactly on fire, either, especially since her best friend seems to be moving in on every guy who catches Mandy's eye.

London couldn't be further from L.A., but stuntwoman-turned-vampire hunter Dawn Madison knows that her job hasn't changed - find the local vampire Underground and wipe it out.

But the vicious pack is starting to realize that its greatest threat may be from within its own ranks.

When a new Vampire Underground is found in England, Hollywood stuntwoman-turned-vampire hunter Dawn Madison and her crack team are dispatched to carry the fight from the flash and dash of Los Angeles to the seemingly staid and stolid streets of London. Dawn knows by now how deceiving appearances can be - and she's about to find out that it's not only the beautiful people of Hollywood who are willing to bargain with evil.

To save her father, Hollywood stuntwoman and vampire hunter Dawn Madison must enter the vampire Underground, where she will encounter an unthinkable betrayal.
