Synopsis
Draug, the deadliest enemy of the vampires, have spread through Morganville's water system and flooded the town. Most residents have fled, but Claire Danvers and her friends Shane, Eve and Michael decide to stay and fight. The situation becomes far worse when Amelie, the founder of Morganville, is bitten by the master draug and infected. Claire and her friends must find an antidote to save her and stop the draug, and they have very little time. If they fail, the town's future, and the uneasy arrangement between its human and vampire residents, will be lost. The master draug is now sheltering inside the one person who holds the town together.
