The Turned: 1

Bol

When twelve-year-old Vespirina opens her family's door to a dying man, she invites in something far worse. One act of mercy shatters an ancient bloodline ward, unleashing a host of creatures bound by a curse older than the kingdoms themselves. By dawn, her village lies in ruin. Her parents are dead. Her brother has been taken.Rescued from the ashes by a vampire hunter named Aldric, Vespirina learns the truth: she has not only doomed her family but broken the barrier that protected generations. To atone, she joins the secretive Rypmav Order-a hidden fortress where those who hunt the darkness train in silence and blood.Among blades, faith, and old hatreds, Vespirina must become what she fears most: relentless, disciplined, and unflinching. Yet as she learns the lore of vampires and the power of ancient wards, she discovers something buried beneath her ruined home-something tied to the seventh bloodline, the one even the hunters refuse to name.Her brother's life-and her own humanity-may depend on what she chooses to believe: the faith of her ancestors, or the creed of those who kill in its shadow.Dark, atmospheric, and unyielding, The Turned is the haunting first chapter of a blood-soaked saga about guilt, power, and the thin line between hunter and monster.
