A hunt for a vampire pulls Geralt into a series of swindles, twists, and punch-ups. Geralt arrives to a small town rumored to be under attack by a vampire. The bounty on its head is substantial, drawing in every two-bit monster hunter for miles, but the competition stiffens when another Witcher, wearing the medallion from the School of the Bear, joins the hunt. Geralt is offered an advantage in the hunt by a peasant woman, but there's a catch, and a small issue of her being locked up in prison. And with an orphan boy appointing himself as Geralt's squire, the White Wolf finds himself with an unlikely team, and even more unlikely rivals, but are they after the same prize? Collects The Witcher: The Bear and the Butterfly #1-#4.
