            | HIGH TIDE IN A SEA OF BLOOD! ...And for Harry Keogh, 
                Necroscope, the tide has finally turned. Always the champion of 
                the living and the dead alike, now Harry is shunned by all men. 
                Always a hunter of the evil that stalks the night, now he in turn 
                is hunted. Always the hero, now he is the plague-bearer, 
                the menace - the monster! 
               But yet his greatest battle 
                will be with himself, with the Thing Inside. For the Necroscope 
                is now a Vampire. 
               Forsaken by the teeming 
                dead, pursued by the espers of E-Branch, Harry has a choice: to 
                be banished, hounded right out of this world...or to release the 
                plague which he carries within himself upon all humanity! 
             | HARRY KEOGH, FEARLESS VAMPIRE 
              HUNTER There's a maniacal murderer 
                on the loose, brutally slaughtering young women with a ferocity 
                that rivals that of the vampires Harry Keogh has spent his life 
                combating. The Necroscope's been asked to solve the crimes... 
                asked by the spirits of the madman's victims. 
               Harry cannot turn down 
                a request from the dead... even if it costs him his soul. In the 
                climactic battle with the vampires, mankind prevailed and purged 
                the vampires from the earth - thanks to Harry, his team of psychically-gifted 
                spies, and Faethor Ferenczy, long-dead 'father' of the world's 
                vampires, who betrayed his own kind. 
               But Harry's alliance with 
                the Faethor has a terrible cost - Harry's very humanity is under 
                attack from the vampire evil coiled in his mind!
