Chosen By Blood (On Sale May 2011)

Chosen By Blood is the first book in a series that follows a unique special ops team. Its leader is Knox Deveraux, a dharmire (half vampire/half human), and the leader of the vamp clan located in Portland, Oregon.

Although Vamps are immortals, Knox’s clan is slowly wasting away thanks to an engineered vaccine developed almost a decade earlier by the FBI. The equivalent of chemical warfare, the FBI created and provided the vamp vaccine to all humans, contaminating their blood so it fails to provide the nourishment vamps need. The FBI used the vamp vaccine at the beginning of the Second Civil War, when Humans fought Otherborn (vampires, weres, shapeshifters, felines, wraiths etc). Although the War has been over for several years, humans and Otherborn are struggling to live in peace, and the plight of the Vamps has reached crisis proportions. The clan’s only true hope is to recover the vamp vaccine antidote, which had recently been created by a group of U.S. scientists, then traitorously sold to a hostile foreign government.

The FBI decides to form the first elite special ops team made up of humans and Otherborn. FBI Director Kyle Mahone offers positions to the best of the best.

The team’s first assignment is to locate the vamp antidote.
