"Food, true dining, is my muse, my one and only mistress. Always has been. Always will be."
On the eve of culinary success, young chef, Thelonious "Theo" Rendger finds himself burdened with a family legacy that tears his dreams to shreds - taking on the mantle of a bloodsucking vampire. Devastated, he is at first a rather poor yet vicious fiend until a late-night intervention forces him to realize another purpose - bringing fine dining to all his fellow otherworldly beings who are the stuff of nightmares for the everyday human. Shifting his epicurean prowess to these more unique palates, Theo turns his heartbreak into a gastronomic empire, embracing the darkness that consumes him and opening pathways between the two worlds he continues to inhabit - that of the human and that of the supernatural beings he now calls "family."
