When a terrifying horde of monsters descends upon his city, night watchman Vandrin must fight his way through the spreading nightmare to reach his wife and daughter before the darkness swallows them whole. Together, they flee through rain-soaked streets toward the docks and the fragile hope of escape, while all around them the city collapses into chaos and death. Throughout their flight Vandrin's heart is torn between his duty to protect the people of the city and the desperate need to save his family; while in his hand he carries an ancient sword, passed down through generations. One that proves surprisingly lethal to the horrors stalking the night. But can a single guard stand against the tide? And will those he loves most survive the night?
