Living a quiet life in Arcanum, Ohio, Sam Fisher spends his days working in his diner and nights with Lilly, his 7-year-old daughter. He's content, even though the diner struggles in the dying town. Until the night everything changes; the undead monster Silas kills his wife and abducts Lilly. Saved by the vampire-killer Jack Harlan, Sam is shocked to learn that vampires, witches, and magic all exist. Thrust into a dark new world where monsters kill without remorse, Sam must learn everything he can from Jack. Lilly's time is running out, and Sam must use every bit of his new training to get her back.
