All Souls Series: Discovery of Witches (Book 1)

Fall under the spell of Diana and Matthew in the stunning first volume of the No.1 internationally bestselling All Souls series.

In a world where witches, daemons, and vampires live secretly among humans, a single lost manuscript holds the secrets of their past and the key to their future. At the center of this mystery is a forbidden love that threatens to shatter a centuries-old peace.

When historian Diana Bishop unknowingly summons an alchemical manuscript in Oxford's Bodleian Library, she shatters the carefully ordered life she has built. Although she comes from an impeccable lineage of powerful witches, the violent death of her parents during her childhood convinced her that human fear is more potent than any witchcraft. By opening the book, Diana unwittingly exposes herself to the creatures she has kept at bay for years—the creative, destructive daemons and the elegant, long-lived vampires.

As the creatures gather in Oxford, sensed by the significance of her discovery, Diana meets the enigmatic Matthew Clairmont. A vampire geneticist with his own dark history, Matthew is drawn to Diana in a shadowy world of half-truths and ancient enmities. Despite the risks, Diana ties herself to him, unaware of the ancient lines they are crossing. As they work together to unlock the manuscript's secrets and their feelings deepen, the fragile balance between their species begins to unravel.
