The story
The short version. Werewolf, 10 episodes on YourChannel. In neon-soaked New Los Angeles, detective Dante Cross is handed a drained corpse whose DNA is a ninety-nine percent match to his own.
The chief gives detective Dante Cross forty-eight hours to crack the fifth drained body in the city. The crime-scene DNA comes back a ninety-nine percent match to him, because Dante is in the vampire gene bank. The encrypted file behind the body changes the case: this test subject is his brother. Dante believed Raze took a bullet twenty years ago. He is alive, turned into a weapon — Subject 001, 473 missions completed, 473 memory wipes, more than four hundred people taken out every time his brain is wiped worse than a dog. A crossed-out phrase in the file reads gene fusion.
The Alpha virus starts spreading through every chip in the city. The team has seventy-two hours to take down the core server or the city is gone. Three keys can stop it: one held by Nyx, one in Raze's armor beside his bio core, and the third inside Dante's eye — the implant Hale put in him twenty years ago, the one that has been watching him ever since. Hale's endgame is to turn the whole city into half-breeds through the virus, then use the perfect fusion blood to unify their evolution.
When the brothers meet, Raze is feral and remembers nothing. His chip lets Hale wipe him remotely on the spot, and the order is kill him. Dante will not raise a hand. He tells Raze about the night they were seven: Raze snuck out past curfew, got chased by three stray dogs, and Dante carried him home on his back while Raze said he smelled like sunshine. The fragments crack the programming. The woman beside them, Nyx, lays out her own secret: she is Hale's daughter. Her mother found out about the experiments and tried to turn him in, so he killed her. Nyx has been hacking his logs for three years; he keeps writing the same phrase, perfect fusion.
