WHEN VAMPIRES STALK AMONG US...

Robbed of his supernatural powers, Harry Keogh is back from Starside, the vampire sourceworld. A mere man again - denied access to the metaphysical Möbius Continuum, no longer able to communicate with the dead - now he must rebuild his life in a world made safe only through his efforts. But safe for how long?

E-Branch, Britain's mindspy organization, wants Harry back with his invaluable talents intact. Likewise the Great majority, his countless dead friends across the world, who know that he's needed as never before. For the old threat has risen anew!

Crumbling in their graves, the teeming dead fear for Harry. If the ex-Necroscope can't find and destroy the last of the Ferenczys, that nightmare vampire dynasty, they know that the vampire will find him. Harry must regain his powers - or risk becoming a vampire himself, undead forever...

THE SILENCE OF THE GRAVE

Atop a perilous cliff, deep in the Balkan mountains, rises the castle of the Ferenczy. Once it was the stronghold of the Vamphyri... and now it will be so again, for Janos Ferenczy, vampire and black magician, has risen from his ages-long sleep. Powerful and evil, Janos conjures dead men and women into a semblance of life and subjects them to fiendish tortures.

But the shrieks of the dead do not satisfy Janos's lust for blood - for that he needs living humans. His terrifying armies of the risen dead will soon overwhelm a helpless, defenseless mankind...

Helpless and defenseless because a terrible battle against the vampires has destroyed Harry Keogh's deadspeak, leaving the Necroscope deaf to the teeming dead... and to their warnings of Janos's reign of terror.

To save the world, Harry must join forces and link minds with the most powerful, and deadliest, vampire of all!
