A grim post-apocalyptic vampire survival story centered on the mentorship bond between a hardened hunter and a traumatized boy seeking refuge in a collapsed world.

Martin was a normal teenage boy before the country collapsed in an empty pit of economic and political disaster. A vampire epidemic has swept across what is left of the nation's abandoned towns and cities, and it's up to Mister, a death dealing, rogue vampire hunter, to get Martin safely north to Canada, the continent's New Eden.
