The 1800’s city of Geneva is plagued by Darklings, cloaked figures who kidnap and murder its impoverished residents during the night.
While the rich hide safely behind their high stone walls the penniless are forced to patrol their own borders to ward off the evil foes.
When a nameless, deformed indentured servant comes of age he is forced into the night to protect the city, he becomes an unlikely hero that saves the mayor’s daughter from a Darkling attack.
But the nameless boy realizes there is more to the Darklings than the city’s residents have been told.
Joined by the mayor’s daughter and his only friend another local boy, he investigates the cause of the attacks. What they uncover is far blacker than the cloaks of the Darklings
