From Pamela Marcantel, the author of AN ARMY OF ANGELS: A NOVEL OF JOAN OF ARC (St. Martin's Press, 1997) comes an exciting new novel set during World War II. A vengeance-driven American vampire with a tragic secret and his team of undead fighters are the only means of preventing a demonic Nazi's assassination of Winston Churchill. A thinking person's vampire tale, neither a horror tale nor a teenage romance, V_SQUAD is a one-of-a-kind reinvention of the vampire mythos as well as a deliberate homage to the 1940s Noir and classic adventure genres.
