At a club in children of the night gather, dressed in black, looking for acceptance. Among them are Ghost, who sees what others do not; Ann, longing for love; and Jason, whose real name is Nothing, newly awakened to an ancient, deathless truth about his father, and himself.

Others are coming to Missing Mile tonight. Three beautiful, hip vagabonds--Molochai, Twig, and the seductive Zillah, whose eyes are as green as limes--are on their own lost journey, slaking their ancient thirst for blood, looking for supple young flesh.
