      It's always darkest before dawn. Secret government unit Department 19 is recovering from evil vampire Valeri Rusmanov's deadly attack on their base. The Department’s newest member, teenage operator Jamie Carpenter, is tasked with training up a new squad, as his friends and colleagues desperately search for ways to try to stop what is coming. The timing couldn’t be worse for a coordinated, global attack on a number of maximum security prisons and hospitals—with the already-dangerous inmates now on the loose and turned into vampires. One of the escapees has a deep connection to one of the darkest moments in the history of Department 19 and embarks on a quest that threatens to expose the existence of vampires to the public. And with each day that passes, the regenerated Dracula gets stronger, bringing Zero Hour closer. In this third installment of the epic Department 19 series, Will Hill delivers higher—and sharper—stakes than ever before.

      Zegar nieubłaganie odmierza czas do Godziny Zero i powrotu Drakuli. Niedobitki Departamentu 19, tajnej rządowej organizacji zajmującej się walką z wampirami, wilkołakami i innymi potworami, desperacko próbują powstrzymać siły ciemności. Do tego organizacja staje przed nowym, śmiertelnym zagrożeniem. Jamiemu Carpenterowi, najmłodszemu agentowi Departamentu 19, powierzono zadanie przeszkolenia nowej grupy operacyjnej, która ma wesprzeć pozostałych agentów w ich działaniach. Czy uda mu się sprostać pokładanym w nim nadziejom? Wojna trwa. Stawką jest przetrwanie ludzkości. James Bond, horror i fantastyka w jednym! Will Hill – zanim rzucił pracę w branży wydawniczej, aby napisać 'Departament 19', pracował jako barman, księgarz i wolontariusz dla organizacji charytatywnej. Dorastał w północno-wschodniej Anglii, boi się pająków i uwielbia koty. Mieszka w Londynie ze swoją dziewczyną. Mówi o sobie: 'Jestem pisarzem, więc spędzam bardzo dużo czasu, gapiąc się w okno, grając w gry komputerowe, sprawdzając maile, udzielając się na portalach społecznościowych oraz generalnie wymyślając nowe i nietypowe sposoby na to, aby odroczyć pisanie...'. Uważa, że jego praca jest dużo ciekawsza od niego samego.
