Nightwing

The Aramaic word for soul is Shade... Dr. Jonathan Raven doesn't possess a reflection or a soul. His search for both leads him from the Valley of the Kings in Egypt in 1878, back to his present day ancestral home in Stonebridge, Massachusetts, and the one person who can help him find both, Willow Evans. Raven has hunted his Shade since unearthing the ancient manuscript describing the Ritual of Rejoining, and the key that will restore him to the man he was before the Egyptian vampire Nekhat turned him. His quest has led him to his former Cape Cod home, but his Shade is proving elusive and the new owner of the house, Willow Evans, is refusing his efforts to bind the soul she believes is a ghost. Willie is drawn to the charismatic Raven, but she's haunted by the image of soulful pirate, Johnny, who could be Raven's twin, and whose smile makes her want to climb into the mirror where he resides and pull him into the corporeal world so they can be together. If Raven can't convince Willie to help him, he could lose his last chance to walk the earth again as a man, and not a monster. For Nekhat has risen, and it won't be long before he tries to re-claim the source of his unearthly power, the moonstone ring Raven has stolen. Willie's only choice, if she's to be with the man she loves is to help Raven complete the ritual that will once again join him to his Shade, Johnny, and become the man he truly is. If they fail, she'll lose them both forever, to an evil they must destroy, no matter what the cost.
