Publisher's Synopsis
His life is in a monster's hands but he may be one himself. The only thing about Tristan's typical American life that'd been even slightly atypical was that he was adopted. The Blum's raised him, loved him as if he was their own. But they never knew who Tristan really was, about the stigma his birth surname carried. Everything changed after their untimely death. Suddenly monsters are after Tristan and all because of a few words spoken by a remarkable stranger. After carelessly stumbling into the arms of the enemy's servant, a rotting jikininki, the one silently watching over Tristan is forced to intercede. Ash claims to be a hunter, but that's not the whole truth. Whatever Ash is or isn't, it's neither good nor evil. And Ash is the only one who can save Tristan now. But can someone who can't even accept the unwavering truth that maybe they never were really human to start with be saved?
