Savage Blood

In the fictional North American Republic, a catastrophic infrastructure collapse traps thousands inside the Greystone Immigration Detention Center. As law evaporates, the strongest inmates forge a brutal new order. Young guard Elias Vane, descendant of a war criminal, struggles to suppress the inherited cruelty stirring in his blood. When detainee Victor Carvajal—scion of a tyrannical dynasty—rises as a merciless warlord, Elias must confront a horrifying truth: savagery is a hereditary disease lying dormant in the family blood, awaiting its inevitable outbreak. A Miyuki Miyabe-style exploration of societal decay and inherited guilt set against a post-legal apocalypse.
