MEET LAWSON.



A cynical, wise-cracking vampire charged with protecting the Balance—the secret existence of a race of LIVING vampires that have evolved alongside humanity for thousands of years.



A FIXER.



Part-spy, and part-commando—James Bond with fangs. Lawson mixes shrewd cunning with unmatched lethality to get his job done. He tries his best to dismantle conspiracies, dispatch bad guys, and live long enough to get home.



SHIVA.



Named after the Hindu god of destruction, she is half-vampire and half-lycanthrope. Able to change her appearance into anyone she pleases, she is one of the most dangerous assassins on the planet.



BELARUS.



The head of the vampire governing body, the Council, he is Shiva's next target.



THE LUNASPE.



An ancient amulet reported to imbue its wielder with invulnerability, it might also be the real goal of Shiva's journey to Boston.



And only Lawson can stop her.
