President’s Vampire, The by Christopher Farnsworth

Sequel to Blood Oath.

Once again Farnsworth will capture readers with his richly imagined and inventive vampire hero Nathaniel Cade. Cade, a former human turned into a vampire almost a century and a half ago and bound ever since by an unbreakable blood oath to protect the President of the United States from any kind of danger.

THE PRESIDENT'S VAMPIRE begins with Cade eager to fulfill his sworn duty by exacting revenge in the aftermath of the events of September 11, 2001 by attacking and killing Osama Bin Laden. As he embarks on his search Cade comes to find a creature even more frightening than he is: a lizard-like humanoid with immense powers fueled entirely by hate. Once again Cade is teamed up with his presidentially assigned human handler Zach Barrows, and both are charged with finding and eliminating these terrifying threats to America's security.

Set against the backdrop of the quest to find the mastermind behind 9/11, the greatest ongoing search effort in the world today, in THE PRESIDENT'S VAMPIRE Farnsworth has created an unstoppable vampire who just might be the only person who can do the job. Readers will be rooting for Cade, a man far less than human yet often more honor-bound and committed to the cause of good than his human counterparts.  Farnsworth has written yet another page-turner targeting our nation's greatest fears, while giving us hope in an unlikely hero who tirelessly works by night so that we may come out stronger by day.
