[edit] Plot
16-year-old Zoë is faced with the reality that her mother is dying of breast cancer. When she meets the mysterious and handsome Simon, she feels he can understand her pain better than anyone else has. As Zoë's life goes from bad to worse, Simon becomes her one true support. However, there is something very creepy about the pale young man. Will that creepy something (that is, the fact that Simon is a vampire) force the two apart? Zoe realizes that Simon is just as lonely as she is. The two fall in love and Simon tells her of his secret. In the story it is discovered that Simon has an older brother, Christopher, who is also a vampire. But he loves killing for pleasure and is stuck in a child's body. Simon has set out to kill Christopher since he was the one who murdered their mother. He disguises himself as an orphan with albinism in order to find temporary homes and new victims.
When Zoë finds out about Christopher, she sets out with Simon with the intent of killing him but his older brother is wise and will not be taken down easily...
