A brutal murder in rural Alaska revives old fears, but the truth may be even darker.
In the remote town of Deadhart, a boy is found dead—his throat torn out and his body drained of blood. The townspeople blame the Colony, a mysterious vampyr community shunned for decades. Detective Barbara Atkins, an expert in vampyr-related killings, arrives to investigate and authorize a cull if necessary.
Unsure if the Colony is truly responsible, Barbara teams up with Jenson Tucker, a reclusive former sheriff whose past investigation nearly killed him. Together, they unravel Deadhart’s dark history, but as tensions rise, another body turns up.
With time running out and the town on edge, Barbara and Tucker must uncover the truth. Are they chasing a supernatural killer—or something far worse?
