The Destructor

Description

There’s a shadow race that has existed alongside humanity for millennia. Carefully intermingled and yet separate, vampire society has evolved and prospered mainly thanks to the tireless work of Fixers-operatives trained to deal with any threat that might compromise the secret existence of their race.

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.
