Vampires are overrunning my city. The FBI is on my tail. And the god of darkness wants to meet with me. Just another day in the life of a hero. Luckily, this time, I’m not alone.

Just because I’m on the job doesn’t mean it will be easy—even with the Gladius Solis at my side and the power of Carcerum coursing through my veins. The problem is that the Forgotten aren’t your run of the mill villains. They’re, well...gods. Which means they’re violent, powerful, and crafty as hell. And all manner of human scum is flocking to their side. Along with my vampire problems, strange beauties have started appearing throughout the country, seducing men and women of great power.

È la vigilia di Natale, la piccola Marie e Fritz, il suo fratellino, attendono con ansia di scartare i loro doni. Quando il fatidico momento arriva, non restano delusi: ci sono una bambola e un vestino nuovo per Marie, e un battaglione di ussari di piombo per Fritz. E poi c'è un soldatino che assomiglia a uno schiaccianoci, ha la giubba rossa, la bocca larga larga, lo sguardo buono: è uno dono insolito del loro padrino Dhrosselmeier.

La bambina si affeziona a lui nonostante il suo aspetto... è sicura che all'interno di quel buffo soldatino batta un cuore buono.
