He left San Francisco in the capable hands of Marco Catalano and his anti-vampire team to defend them against vampires. With special operators at his command, Kraft has been killing every vampire he can find in the Middle East. After clearing out a nest in Tora Bora, he is finally brought back to New York, and the investigation that led him to vampires in the first place.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>Marco is starting to spiral. He knows it. His team knows it. Everyone around him can see that he\u2019s just a bomb waiting to explode. The only woman who can bring him back from the brink is also the woman who lit his fuse.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>Ever since the demon Asmodeus tried to murder Marco, Amanda Colt has been hunting down every lead to find the ones ultimately behind the attempt. After months of investigation, she learns that something in the dark is colder than the dark. It is a vampire assassin that Amanda has faced once before, and Amanda lost. This assassin is stronger than anything they\u2019ve face before, and it isn\u2019t alone.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>With Marco ready to self-destruct, and the armies of Hell ready to descend, the three of them must come together and stop a thousand-year-old assassin that has never been stopped, and has never failed to kill her target.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Excerpt:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>\u201cSo, love,\u201d Bosley began as informally as ever, her London accent slipping in. \u201cYou\u2019re gonna wait until at least Christmas? You love Marco, he may love you, for all you know.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>Amanda sat back in the chair. She was still thrown at how casual Bosley could be. <\/em><em>\u201cDa.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>Bosley leaned forward, put down her wine glass, and picked up a picture from her blotter. \u201cThis him?\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>Amanda blinked, and focused a little. \u201cHow did you -\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>\u201cIt\u2019s called Facebook, in\u2019it?\u201d Bosley smiled. She kicked back in the chair, sweeping her glass in one hand, and holding onto the picture in the other. \u201cNice lookin\u2019 fella.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>Amanda squeezed her eyes shut, as though to clear them. The conversation was a little\u2026 surreal. She wasn\u2019t exactly up on \u201cgirl talk.\u201d Maybe it had to do with being Russian. Perhaps it had to do with being a vampire. Perhaps Bosley was just strange. \u201cHe is. Little on the young side, though.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>Bosley gave her an amused glance. \u201cListen, mate, when you reach, well, our general age, human age doesn\u2019t exactly count for much. Know what I mean? Forty, twenty, makes little difference after you hit the first century mark. See what I mean?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>\u201cPerhaps.\u201d Amanda looked off to the side. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t know. My life has been very\u2026 quiet for a vampire, I suppose.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>Bosley nodded sagely. \u201cI know how that can be. For the first few weeks, I was like that all the time.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>\u201cI\u2026 found a job.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>Bosley looked at her. \u201cReally? Well, then, I can only imagine how that went.\u201d She looked back to the pic of Marco. \u201cYou really have a nice fella here. Five-nine, right? Dancer type, if the pic\u2019s any indication.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>\u201cMartial arts,\u201d Amanda supplied. \u201cMuch the same.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>\u201cTrue. Blond, with an Italian last name? Northern Italy, I\u2019m guessing.\u201d Bosley grinned. \u201cLike I told him, if anything happens to you, I\u2019ll be happy to take him in.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>Amanda tried not to laugh. \u201cBe careful. He might just take you in.\u201d <\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 60px;\"><em>\u201cIndeed.
