An ancient book of Dark Magic - now in the hands of children ...
Lucy Brennan, on holiday with her parents in the land of Egypt, comes into possession of an ancient book.
The Alchemists' Cookbook. Smuggling it back to the UK, she and her friends manage to unlock its secrets and begin experimenting with the recipes.
What follows is in turns terrifying, hilarious and life changing.
But the Cookbook was stolen and the world's most deadly Assassin is on its trail.
Trailing the Assassin are two creatures centuries old, thought only to exist in myth and legend and the imagination of horror writers. Real living blood drinking Vampires.
But the true owners of the Book have sent their emissary to retrieve it and the race is on.
Who will reach the friends first and what will be their ultimate fate?
That is, if the Magic doesn't destroy them first.
