New York: TOR / Tom Doherty Associates, (1993) dj. Hardcover first edition - A "dark, sharp urban fantasy . . . What if you could live for centuries, and the only price was your soul...? Agyar is a man who has paid this price. Born over a century ago, and once a frivolous young man in search of pleasure, he found instead immortality in a woman's blood-red lips. Now he roams from woman to woman, from decade to decade, and from land to land." 254 pp. ISBN: 0-312851782.
