the Long Night of Jiangshi

In the dusty heart of the West, Daisy Town is a place where the whiskey burns, the guns speak louder than the men... and the dead never stay where you put them. When an ancient Taoist ritual awakens the jiangshi, the infamous "hopping corpses," the town finds itself besieged by rigid, ravenous monsters led by a dark priest: Laoshi Liang. Only a handful of unlikely defenders remain: - Clifford, a rough, stubborn sheriff- Spencer, his reckless brother with more courage than sense- Mei-Ling, keeper of ancient Taoist secrets- a Sasquatch who never asked to be involved- and a brothel turned into the most improbable fortress in the WestBetween shattered rituals, mirrors that trap souls, bells that rouse the dead, and a love that blooms where no one expects it, Daisy Town becomes a battlefield between life and death, between Eastern folklore and gunpowder. And when everything seems over... a final chime in the darkness reminds them that evil never truly dies.
