Hunters in the dark
An Imperial world lost to silence. A xenos threat beyond imagining. And one Guardsman who dared to stand among gods.
In the wake of the Great Rift, Gethsemane Prime vanishes from the Imperium's light. Vox-relays fall. Colonies go dark. From the blackness between stars, a Tyranid splinter-fleet descends-a hunger made manifest.
Answering the desperate call are the Deathwatch: elite xenos-hunters drawn from the finest Space Marine Chapters. Among them walks Garran, a Flesh Tearer forged in blood; Tyras, a chaplain whose sermons burn like fire; and Titus, an Ultramarine touched by something even the Warp cannot see.
But in the dying trenches of Gethsemane, it is not only Astartes who fight. Elias Ryder, a teenage conscript with no right to survive, will face the unthinkable-and become more than mortal.
As the Deathwatch descend into the heart of the Hive, hunted by monsters from beyond the stars and the veil, a darker truth emerges: the Hive Mind is not alone.
Xenos. Chaos. Madness.
The Vigil has begun.
