V indiánské rezervaci Prérijní růže nadešla velká noc – slavnostní otevření multimilionového kasina Splašený kůň. Pro náčelníka kmene a šéfa místního zločineckého podsvětí Lincolna Rudou vránu to je vyvrcholení téměř třiceti let snění, manipulací a zabíjení. Pro zvláštního agenta FBI Dashiella Zlého koně to je jen další noc, kdy coby tajný agent nasazený do organizace Rudé vrány riskuje krk. Pro Dashovu matku Ginu je to bolestná připomínka, jak neodvolatelně se věci zvrhly. Pro rádoby indiána Dieselového motora je to velká příležitost, při níž si může v hnutí Rudé síly konečně vydobýt jméno. Pro záhadného šamana známého pod jménem Ten, kdo chytá je to noc znamení a vizí. A pro jednoho z nich to bude i poslední noc života.
"Caine, son of Adam. Inventor of murder. Cursed by God. The closest thing this doomed world has to a savior. It's 1,600 years after Eden, and life on earth has already gone to hell. The world of man is a place of wanton cruelty and wickedness. Prehistoric monsters and Stone Age marauders roam the land. Murder and destruciton are the rules of the day. This is the story of man on the verge of his first apocalypse. This is life before the Flood. Welcome to the world of the Goddamned."--page 4 of cover.
Ráno po otevření kasina se Dashiell Zlý kůň probouzí a zjišťuje, že v noci byl zabity dvě ženy. Jednou z nich byla jeho matka.
