(#31 in the Bestselling Lawson Vampire Series)
Meet Lawson: vampire by birth, Fixer by trade. His mission: preserve the secret existence of vampires by any means necessary.
Ripped away from some rest & relaxation in Spain, Lawson's Control Niles sends him to Sarajevo on an overwatch mission. A new vampire governor is making the rounds and despite the fact that he has a Specter security detail with him, Niles wants Lawson there...just in case. But even as he hits the ground, things start going from bad to worse as some one or some thing obviously wants the governor dead. But for what reason? Amid the fog of unanswered questions and looming threats, Lawson faces a bigger challenge than expected.
And it's one he's never faced before.
Praise for Jon F. Merz:
"Lawson is more like Jason Bourne than Dracula, making this a vampire mystery with broad appeal." --Booklist
"A powerful novel by a man who knows the turf already." -NYT Bestselling author Robert. B. Parker
"Jon F. Merz's novels move at a break-neck pace, twisting through a landscape of thrills and terror." -- Douglas Clegg, author of The Infinite and The Priest of Blood
"...a fine stalking session in vampire-noir land...a series and talented writer I'll be sticking with all the way." -- Mort Castle, author of The Strangers and On Writing Horror
Praise for Jon F. Merz's THE KENSEI (A Lawson vampire Novel #5):
"If James Bond, True Blood and Kill Bill created a mutant hybrid of a book, it would be The Kensei. A bullet train slice 'em, dice 'em mixture of action, suspense, and vampire ninjas. Did I mention vampire ninjas?"--Jason Pinter, bestselling author of The Fury and The Darkness
"The Kensei is an action novel with real bite. Vampires, Yakuza killers, crooks and animal-monster hyrbids. Jon F. Merz brings his A-game and then ratchets it up to a whole new level of supernatural action. Highly recommended!" --Jonathan Maberry, New York Times bestselling author of The Dragon Factory and Patient Zero
"In The Kensei, Jon F. Merz seamlessly welds gritty detail with myth and legend to create a thrill ride into the shadow-world lurking beneath modern Japan. Lawson's fight against evil has bone-crunching authenticity. Plus, it has vampires, ninjas, and vampire ninjas. What more could anyone ask?"--Christopher Farnsworth, author or Blood Oath
