Paris is burning. Shadows walk the streets. And one hunter carries a curse that could save the city-or destroy it. When Kaelen, a merciless monster hunter, is drawn into the war against the Court of Shadows, he discovers that the enemy he hunts is already within him. The Heart of Crimson, an ancient force of blood and ruin, beats inside his chest, binding him to the monsters he has sworn to destroy. With him stand a broken band of allies: - Ardyn, a blacksmith who forges weapons powerful enough to wound nightmares. - Corvin, a weary exorcist clinging to fading faith. - Selene, a sorceress whose whispers tempt Kaelen toward his throne of darkness. From the alleys of Paris to the ruins of cathedrals, Kaelen must battle were-beasts, vampires, and abominations of flesh and shadow. But every victory feeds the Heart, and every whisper draws him closer to becoming the very thing he fears. Will Kaelen remain a hunter-or rise as the king of monsters? The Heart of Crimson is the first volume in Hayden Titanium's gothic dark fantasy trilogy, perfect for fans of Castlevania, The Witcher, and Devil May Cry.
