'The Legend of The Vampire Khufu'

Arising as an immortal vampire from the cold stone of the great Pyramid of Egypt, Khufu, the once mighty Pharaoh, believes that he can exist in the world of mortals with impunity and dignity. This soon changes when he learns of another powerful vampire out to destroy him, causing him to remain hidden in deep shadows along with other foul creatures of the night. However he quickly learns that solitude is a much more formidable enemy than the other immortal, the loneliness at times almost driving him mad. Many years later he becomes involved with a mortal woman that he learns to love and would like to spend eternity with, but before he can make her an immortal the woman dies. Devastated by this Khufu shuns mortal company for thousands of years, until in modern times he finds a woman that he believes is his love re-incarnated. However, about the same time he finds the woman his enemy finds him. What follows will keep you unable to set the book down until you have read the last page.
