Plot summary
College student, Sarah Price (Maïté Alina), an East Side College girl and disciple of Jung, dies as the result of exsanguination. Nichols and Stevens question Sarah's drop-out boyfriend, Kyle Wyler ( Christopher Abbott ) and a wealthy married woman Michelle Linden ( Alysia Reiner ) which leads them to a vampiric cult whose belief in immortality is based on the consumption of human blood by its apparent leader and ex-convict Jeremy Parks, AKA Anton Lebrun ( Clayne Crawford ). However, they find that Lebrun is merely the dupe of Virgil, AKA Jonathan Parish ( Matt Burns ), a manipulative mortician with psychopathic behavior which Nichols attributes to him being raised by his mother who worked in an abattoir. When Virgil frames Parks for Sarah's murder, Parks assists the detectives to bring Virgil to justice. Also stars Rick Holmes as the college professor, and Dan Butler as Sarah's father, Ohio Congressman Price.
