Nightwalker: The Midnight Detective follows Tatsuhiko Shido, a private investigator in modern Kanagawa who is secretly a vampire. Long ago he was turned against his will by the vampire Cain, and he has no clear memory of his human life. Rather than feed on people, he has chosen to protect them. He works with Yayoi Matsunaga, a government agent from the N.O.S. organization that fights the Nightbreed, demonic beings that take over human bodies and feed on human flesh. Yayoi, whose friendship with Shido runs deep, supplies him with her blood. The team is completed by Riho Yamazaki, an orphaned teenage girl who serves as his secretary, and Guni, a small green imp. Together they take on cases the police cannot solve and battle the Nightbreed threatening the city, while Shido struggles with his dark side and the question of whether he can keep his humanity.
