Because her very existence depends on her secret not being found out, every day is a new danger - to say nothing of that vampire!

In the nightmare world of 12090 A.D., finding Meierlink before he reaches the spaceport in the Clayborn States and gets off the planet will be hard enough, but D has more than just Meierlink to worry about.

While the Vampire Hunter known only as "D" struggles to exterminate the scourge, a former denizen of the city, the attractive Lori Knight, and the brash John M. Brasselli Pluto VIII seize control of the city, lurching it onto a new and deadly course. D's travails are just the beginning.

The riveting conclusion to the two-volume episode!

A mysterious bead and a young woman's dying wish have brought D to the seashore village of Florence-a town that's perpetually stuck in winter. Summer comes to this shore but one week a year and it brings something more than just the warm weather-the sole-surviving Noble comes out of hiding too! That rare bead may hold all the secrets of the Nobility and humans. With such an enticing artifact in his hand (literally!), D is doggedly pursued by the henchmen of the young woman's murderer. These unscrupulous assassins have no qualms using the dead woman's sister as bait to draw out D, but the mysterious Noble has other designs on her.

Finally remembering what he has been seeking all these years, the Noble won't let anything get in his way-even a notorious vampire hunter like D!
