The Lasombra are known primarily for ruling the fractious Sabbat. The Assamites are known primarily as the assassins of the Kindred. Lucita, a Lasombra assassin, has spent years fighting to make her unlife her own. It has been a hard-fought struggle, for her sire is none other than Moncada, one of the architects of the Sabbat offensive in North America. Lucita will stop at nothing to humiliate her sire...and there is little under the moon that can stop her.
