In one of her cases, a young man is killed by having all of his blood drained from him. His girlfriend hires Nelson to learn more. Rumors of vampirism abound, though Nelson doesn't believe in them – until she meets the undead member of the British royal family, Henry FitzRoy, the illegitimate son of Henry VIII, who happens to be a vampire and a romance writer who is looking for the same vampire that she is.
