"Kate Neuman, a brilliant hematologist, is in post-Ceausescu Romania to lend her expertise in the treatment of rare blood diseases. Her most baffling case is that of an abandoned seven-month-old boy who requires biweekly transfusions to survive. Kate soon realized that baby Joshua is nothing less than a miracle child, and his unique immune system holds the key to a cure for cancer and AIDS, as well as tremendous potential for extending human lives." ... "Pursued by mysterious, superhuman thugs, she and her friend Father O'Rourke embark on an incredible odyssey that will bring them face to face with the original Vlad Dracula."
