By the time he was six years old, Stephen had been bombarded by the Luftwaffe & deported from occupied Guernsey, along with his family, to a prison camp in the heart of Adolf Hitler’s Third Reich.

He had seen men die in front of him & walked with Jewish prisoners straight off the cattle-trucks from Bergen- Belsen.

He had nearly drowned, narrowly avoided being savaged by Alsatian guard dogs, been beaten by a pathological member of the SS & had his hand broken by a guard whilst attempting to feed a Russian prisoner.

The family kept going through three & a half years of imprisonment, reinforced by their strong sense of survival & their loving support for each other, before a dramatic & violent liberation by Allied forces ended their ordeal.

Yet when they were eventually returned to Guernsey, it was to find that their tranquil home had been stricken & scarred by Nazi occupation.

Walking the streets of Moscow, indistinguishable from the rest of its population, are The Others. Possessors of supernatural powers and capable of entering the Twilight, a shadowy world that exists in parallel to our own, each owes allegiance either to The Dark or The Light. Alice, a young but powerful Dark Other, attends a planning meeting with her comrades in the Day Watch. The team is on a mission to apprehend an uninitiated Other, a practicing Dark witch who has so far eluded the bureaux responsible for finding and initiating unlicensed practitioners of magic. It seems a routine operation. But when they arrive, the Night Watch team has already made the arrest. A fierce battle ensues, during which Alice almost dies. Drained of her powers, she is sent to recuperate at a youth
camp near the Black Sea. There she meets Igor; the chemistry between them is instant and irresistible. But then comes a shattering realisation: Igor is a Light Mage. Suddenly Alice remembers him as one of those involved in the battle that left her crippled. Now that they know, there is no alternative to a magical duel, a battle that neither of them wants to win.
