Niac is the first book in the Ideas in Blood Series. The series begins just after the Age of Reason and at the beginning of the nineteenth century.

For the antagonist of the series, walking alongside human history, killing, and defrauding has become unbearably mundane and as routine as the sunrise. He is resolute in his belief that he has been cursed to be an immortal parasite and that there is nothing new under the sun. Consequently, he has existed for millennia without any hope of ending his parasitic existence.

However, a chance encounter reveals that there is something new under the sun and it produces a protagonist who's cursed with the same immortality and all its horrific requirements.

Taking separate paths, the protagonist seeks a meaningful purpose in his new existence while the antagonist searches, with renewed hope, for a way to end his old existence. The series continues through the centuries as they hide in plain sight in a world where each technological advancement has the potential of exposing their identities as immortal killers.

Eventually, they meet again in a battle to stop the other from implementing their conflicting plans for the future of humanity.

Book one starts in America with a conversation about a patent for what turns out to be the cotton gin and the disappearance of several teenagers.



The story then goes over to England, where an American businesswoman and a recently free American slave travels to England hoping to find buyers for a cotton plantation that she inherited.

While in England, they meet a mysterious man and hear about the strange disappearances of several locals. This mysterious man helps to facilitate the sale of the plantation to a local aristocrat before all three return to America together.

While in America, people associated with the businesswoman began to suspect that she is under some nefarious influence, leading people to inquire about this mysterious man's real identity.
