As they confront unseen threats, the pressure mounts, leading to unexpected twists and revelations that challenge their resolve and relationships.

Set against the backdrop of the American heartland, a chilling mystery unfolds as law enforcement officers become the targets of a ruthless killer. The narrative delves into the investigation, exploring the tensions within the community and the impact of these crimes on the lives of both the police and the citizens. As the plot thickens, themes of justice, loyalty, and the darker aspects of human nature emerge, creating a gripping tale that keeps readers on the edge of their seats.

A fast-paced, grisly, bloody and wry police procedural thriller, this story covers the solving of a horrific satanic cult murder in rural Iowa. Deputy Sheriff Carl Houseman somehow manages to collar the perpetrator in just 11 days.

Una giovane donna, Edith Younger, giace senza vita nella vasca da bagno di un'antica e tetra dimora. Dalle vene squarciate e prosciugate della sua gola non stilla più una goccia di sangue. Tutto farebbe pensare a un suicidio, ma l'agente Houseman è convinto che la ragazza sia stata uccisa. Gli amici di Edith sono testimoni reticenti e impauriti, oppressi da un segreto angosciante. Soltanto uno di loro, Toby, dichiara di conoscere l'identità dell'assassino che come un virus si è insinuato nelle loro vite, coinvolgendoli in pericolosi rituali di sesso e di sangue. L'uomo si fa chiamare "vampiro" e per i ragazzi è un'incarnazione del male, ma per Houseman non è altro che un pazzo omicida da catturare prima che possa colpire ancora.
