This was much better that I though it would be.  This is a solid start to a series.Lawson is a Fixer, and also a vampire.  Consider a Fixer a super cop of the vampire world. If a vampire steps out of line, or breaks any laws, a Fixer is called and Lawson is the  best of the best.  He's warned The Council of a really nasty vampire called, Cosgrove. He'll kill anyone for any reason; human or vampire. The Council ignores what Lawson says about Cosgrove, and the Council considers it a closed matter. However, Lawson know Cosgrove won't stop killing. Cosgrove and Lawson have a past, a dark and violent one.  Cosgrove is back and has more than killing on his mind.  Cosgrove has a plan that will bring the vampire Council to it's knees, and rule the vampire world and the human world.  Only one person can stop Cosgrove, and that's Lawson.  Lawson will do anything to stop Cosgrove. Lawson comes to terms with himself, Cosgrove, his past, and the people he works for and with.This is such a neat read. Jon F. Merz make the vampire mythology his own, and have fun with it.  Some of the complaints with the book is that the dialogue is cheesy. I don't think that's a fair thing to say. The Fixer reads like an old Film Noir movie.  It maybe somewhat cheesy, but it's so much fun.If you like vampire books, then you really need to start this series. I can be pretty sure that you won't be sorry. I can't wait till I get the next one.
