In San Francisco, Louis seeks comfort in one of few things a vampire should not: the sun. Thousands of miles away, Lestat—plagued by the ghostly reminders of his failures as a maker, a father, and a partner—is interrupted by the voice of Armand with grave news of his ex-lover. Watching Louis walk away in Paris upended his life and has haunted him for two decades. This time, he knows that if he remains idle once more, he will not get another chance. A canon-divergent reimagining of September 8th, 1973 and the days that follow.
