In "The Fixer," Jon F. Merz introduces us to Lawson, a vampire—or to be more precise, a "Fixer" for the vampire elite. Forget the classical capes and coffins; Lawson is more James Bond than Dracula. Tasked with solving issues that the undead can't handle themselves, Lawson deals with rogue vampires, intricate plots, and supernatural politics. He's the sort of vampire who'd stake you first and ask questions later, if ever.
The novel thrives on action and intrigue, blending the best of espionage tropes with dark urban fantasy elements. Lawson navigates a world rife with clandestine operations and backdoor dealings. He's as at home defusing a supernatural crisis as he is sipping blood cocktails at a vampire soiree. For those SFcrowsnest readers who think that supernatural beings should come with a side of martial arts and political cunning, "The Fixer" offers a lethal but highly entertaining cocktail.
