The United States of America has had a long history of misunderstandings and skirmishes with other countries. However, America has also had a long history of fights with the Other Side. Until a minor indiscretion with the President's daughter, Zach Barrows was blissfully ignorant of paranormal and other mysteries; he was on the fast track, but now he's the liaison to the President's secret weapon: the President's Vampire, Nathaniel Cade.

Zach's quickly being indoctrinated into the layers of secrecy beneath events as much for his sharp wit, amiable manner and silver tongue as he is for his political acumen. Zach and Cade are called into investigate, hunt down and sometimes kill seemingly mythical and man-made monsters, while Zach treads the thorny and hazy path of interacting with a man who has seen and felt centuries of evil, a man who is oath-bound to protect the country.

In an age where vampire tales range from the ridiculous to the sublime and back again, many readers will be excited to learn of the paranormal through the eyes of Zach, as he gets to know Nathaniel, a man whose moral compass transcends his oath. Fans of various paranormal works will enjoy BLOOD OATH, as well those who always wanted to investigate the recesses of Indiana Jones' or The Librarian's basements!

Book Summary

The ultimate secret. The ultimate agent. The President's vampire.

Zach Barrows is an ambitious young White House staffer whose career takes an unexpected turn when he's partnered with Nathaniel Cade, a secret agent sworn to protect the president. But Cade is no ordinary civil servant. Bound by a special blood oath, Cade has spent more than 140 years in service to the president, battling nightmares before they can break into the daylight world of the American dream.

Immediately Zach and Cade receive their first joint assignment: one that uncovers a shadowy government conspiracy and a plot to attack the Unites States with a gruesome new biological weapon. Zach soon learns that the world is far stranger, and far more dangerous, than he ever imagined . . . and that his partner is the least of his problems.
