Qualcosa di sinistro e crudele si è abbattuto su Fell's Church. Elena e le sue amiche hanno trovato forse un nome alla forza che sta travolgendo come un fiume in piena le vite di tutti gli abitanti: Streghe di Salem. Ma quale può essere il collegamento tra le streghe e i malach, le mutevoli creature del male che si sono impossessate di Caroline e Tamra, trasformando le due tranquille ragazze in spaventosi e ambigui mostri senza vergogna? Ora che al fianco di Elena non c'è più Stefan, allontanato con l'inganno e sparito senza lasciare traccia, solo il vampiro Damon può aiutarla.

Elena Gilbert ha scelto di morire. Si è sacrificata per salvare i due vampiri fratelli innamorati di lei, il bello e tenebroso Stefan e l'astuto e infido Damon. Ma ora è di nuovo viva: una misteriosa entità l'ha riportata in vita donandole poteri sovrumani. Nel suo sangue pulsa una nuova forza, unica e travolgente, irresistibile per qualsiasi vampiro. Stefan ne è ancora perdutamente innamorato, e spera di poter iniziare una vita con lei, ma Damon non cede: spinto da un'insaziabile sete di potere, la vuole per sé, come sua amante.

A Fell's Church le cose non sono mai come sembrano: la verità è sempre ammantata di mistero, e anche le più consolidate certezze possono crollare sotto i colpi dell'amore, della passione e della vendetta. Elena, contesa dai due fratelli vampiri, è tornata dal mondo dei morti con nuovi, incredibili poteri. Stefan è scomparso e adesso Damon, il vampiro malvagio, ha campo libero: ora che la creatura che lo possedeva è stata sconfitta e il fratello non può più frapporsi tra lui ed Elena, sembra che il suo trionfo sia vicino.

Non c'è più traccia di Stefan e Damon da quando è scomparsa la bellissima Elena, l'amore che ha unito e diviso i due fratelli vampiri. Intanto Caroline è decisa a riconquistarsi le sue vecchie amiche: Bonnie, dotata di poteri paranormali, e la risoluta, sfuggente Meredith. Ma Bonnie sa che qualcosa sta per accadere. Sente che l'immane forza malvagia che ha già seminato tanto terrore sta tornando.
