What will life on Earth be like if power ends up in the hands of alien vampires who are not afraid of either an aspen stake or a silver sword? How to survive in a world of soulless zombies marked by death? Who can you trust if every second person is now a traitor? Forty-fifth year of the reign of the Kurians, bloodthirsty vampires who feed on the vital aura of people. David Valentine, having left service in the ranks of the Wolves, joins the division of the Cats, clever spies hunting in the Kurian Zone. Together with his fearless partner, Smokey, he is tasked with uncovering the secret of the Broken Cross, a mysterious organization whose fighters drink blood no worse than the Kurian Reapers and fire from machine guns like first-class snipers. Who is behind all this and what is his goal? Valentine and Smokey intend to find out at any cost.
