Lawson is a seasoned, cynical, and sarcastic Fixer assigned to the Boston area of operations. He bristles whenever he has to deal with the Council, the governing body of vampires who dispense the laws and sanctions – that Lawson must enforce. Shiva is someone who doesn’t follow those laws: a rogue half-lycan-half-vampire assassin, she’s sold herself out to the highest bidder for years. But now she’s back, ostensibly to assassinate the head of the Council.

But is that the only reason she’s in town? As the game of cat-and-mouse unfolds, Lawson discovers that Shiva’s kill job might just be a smokescreen and the real goal of her presence in Boston might be to finally locate an ancient amulet that is said to bestow upon its wielder with unheard of powers over all living things.

This is the third book in the bestselling Lawson Vampire series, a thrilling blend of crime, espionage, and magic that spans over 43 adventures to-date.

It is the moment Simon Logan, the Necromancer has been waiting for. A daring prison break allows him to escape Templar control and vanish into the night. Newly promoted Captain Riley and the reformed Echo Team are given the job of tracking him down.

But rather than waiting for Echo to come looking for him, the Necromancer takes the battle to them instead; luring former Commander Williams away from his home and stealing the physical form of his wife, Gabrielle, a woman caught somewhere between life and death. It is perhaps the one act that could rouse Cade from the grey haze his life has become.

As he ruthlessly tracks the Necromancer through this world and the next, Cade can’t help but ask himself what Logan might want with a half-dead woman and the man who had literally traveled to hell and back to rescue her.

New York Times bestseller Joseph Nassise delivers another “tour-de-force of adrenaline-drenched mayhem” in the 4th book of the action-packed Templar Chronicles supernatural adventure series.

Lawson is a seasoned, cynical, and sarcasticFixer assigned to the Boston area of operations. He bristles whenever he has to deal with the Council, the governing body of vampires who dispense the laws -and sanctions -that Lawson must enforce. So when his oldest enemy, a psychopath named Cosgrove, comes to town and starts leaving a trail of bodies in his wake, Lawson’s ready to put him down -with or without the Council’s blessing.

But someone else has Cosgrove in their sights: a beautiful and lethal human assassin tutored by the Soviets and blooded in the wilds of Afghanistan. She’s in town for payback and isn’t about to let someone like Lawson get in her way. Now even as these two professionals careen toward one another on a collision course, Cosgrove is busy killing for another reason entirely: he wants to raise the spirit of an ancient vampire god -one so terribly evil that its rebirth threatens the fate of not just vampire society, but of humanity as well.

This is the first book in the bestselling Lawson Vampire series, a thrilling blend of crime, espionage, and magic that spans over 43 adventures to-date.
