Description
Karmilla!
Born a human slave named Sakkara, Purgatori became an avenging vampire. Because the blood of Fallen Angels flows in her veins, she is the only one of her kind, part human, part vampira, and part angel, unique in all the cosmos in origin, anger, and uncompromising hunger. Ancient Egyptian prophecy promises she will one day lead an apocalyptic army, ascending to god-like supremacy. To dominate the earthly place, she sometimes assumes false faces; disguised as Sakkara, CEO of Isis Internatioal, for example, she holds the reins of earthly powers. But at least two challenging creatures have penetrated her disguise: her lover Satrina and Karmilla , the vampire hunter!
