In a world of monsters and men, all the races live in harmony… except for vampires. There are those who still live in the past, clinging to the ways and traditions of old, hunting vampires to eliminate what they don’t understand and grinding the once great race into dust. The remaining vampires live in secrecy, never divesting their true selves for fear of persecution.
Despite this, the Yagami-Lawliets live happily, working together under the title of L, solving the world’s most pressing cases. For years they have lived like this, Light and L happily joined in marriage, taking care of their genius, adopted children. But with the rise of a new threat, for the first time, Light and L worry about their vampire son and what may become of him.
