Three gamblers survived a vampire massacre by becoming vampires themselves.
Now Haruto Fujikura, Hayato Oribe, and Rei Fujimori are loose on the roads of 1638 Japan: wounded, penniless, starving, and dangerously unprepared for what they have become.
They need fresh human blood to survive.
They also need rules strong enough to stop survival from becoming murder.
Then the Sawamura House finds them and offers everything they lack: safe rooms, willing Guests, medicine, credit, and generations of vampire knowledge.
But safety comes with terms.
And while the House closes around them, human investigator Naoto Deshimaru follows the trail they leave behind: wounded workers, blood, contradictions, and injuries no ordinary man should be able to inflict.
Caught between hunger, pursuit, and a civilization that may save them by claiming them, three friends must decide how much of themselves they can keep when survival requires becoming predators.
THE GAMBLERS' ROAD is historical Gothic vampire horror about blood, friendship, pursuit, and the price of staying human.
