Living is hard is some parts of USA. Not all USA is rich as you see in the movies. Some are poor. When companies change people are fired and with no new companies coming in people stay out of work.
A group of friends then decide to make a Breaking Bad kind of situation and produce meth. The place to produce is a isolated farm that has been shunned by their forefathers.
That place has a surrounding by a ring of garlic which was odd but the oddest is the lack of life within that place.
There they fight a cave and all hell breaks loose. Vampires than remind me of beasts with bloodlust start hunting them. It's a great short novella (100 something pages) that have connections to other tales - per example the nod to the Russian mafia " Whitey" you can find in the tale kill whitey.
What unfolds is some splatterpunk situation with gore all around.
In terms of characters they are developed and you see differences between them. I enjoy the ending althought it may not be one you envision as the story progress..
There are also two interconnected tales - just brief mentions. One is like a man all alone in the world but he is not a normal man. The second is about a rescue mission gone wrong. Pretty good to be honest. Better than kill whitey
