In a shadow-draped France, an ancient horror freed from its tomb has transformed the kingdom into a vampire's playground. Paris trembles under the Cardinal's undead rule, the countryside lies abandoned, and the king offers no resistance. Until now, three legendary Musketeers have held back the darkness with blessed silver and unwavering courage. But Athos has fallen, turned during a blood mass, while a fiery young man from Gascony arrives seeking vengeance-D'Artagnan, orphaned by the vampires that claimed his family. With one Musketeer transformed and a vampire-hunter determined to join their ranks, an impossible alliance forms in France's darkest hour. Some bonds transcend even blood -but will it be enough when the line between hero and monster blurs with each nightfall? One for all and all for one- in a battle for the soul of France itself.
