Goodreads Synopsis:

A spin-off series from the hit manga Gangsta that tells the backstory of Marco Adriano.

The man named Marco Adriano is a loyal and beloved member of the Cristiano Family, helping them protect the persecuted Twilight population in the city of Ergastulum. But he was once a boy code-named “Spas,” raised as a Hunter and assigned to the Destroyers Second Group for a single purpose: to track down and kill Twilights.

No longer able to ignore what his conscience is telling him, Spas finally tracks down Maverick and confronts her. With time running out and deaths piling up, can he convince her to turn away from her twisted ideology of salvation?

Review:

There's just utter chaos in this volume. They're killing twilights and everyone involved with them, and it's bloody and brutal. But then, as Spas realizes what they're doing is wrong and tries to stop it, they end up fighting each other, as well.
Everyone is fighting everyone, and there's blood everywhere, and arguing, and attempts at saving people, and it's hard to tell who's winning, if anyone is.
Marie and Spas have it out in this volume, and it's not good. With the cliffhanger, it looks like more bad things are in store for Spas, as he stands up for what he believes in.
This series is a bit hard to take. I definitely wouldn't follow it, or have picked it up, on my own, but it does intrigue me. I kind of want to know who comes out of this massacre alive.
