Overview
Some legends are better left forgotten. The world believes Kris Kringle--ex-mercenary turned Guardian of Christmas--is on a killing spree. A man of violence with a white beard and red coat, wielding Workshop technology to protect children's joy, now stands accused of slaughtering innocents. A twisted mirror image armed with bleeding-edge tech and ancient claws claims the title of Krampus Christmas's forgotten enforcer is stalking the shadows wearing his colors. When this doppelganger targets the woman Kris loves and threatens to destroy both Christmas and Chinese New Year through global financial collapse, the real Saint Nick must hunt down the imposter. With his enhanced armor failing and enemies surrounding him, Kris faces an impossible choice: protect the Workshop's secrets or save the woman who grounds his humanity. As the body count rises, one terrifying question remains: how can you stop an enemy who knows your every move? Will Kris unmask Krampus before his reputation is destroyed forever? Or will this dark reflection prove that some Christmas spirits can't be conquered, even by Workshop magic? The naughty list just got more crowded. And it's written in blood.
