After former Chicago Cop Tom Mankowski found out the truth behind his birth, he discovered others with the same secret. Some want to live out their lives in hiding. Some are fighting to make the world better. And some are trying to destroy all life on earth. Tom, and the friends he made during the blockbuster bestseller THE LIST, have reunited to take down this dangerous government experiment, one engineered historical figure at a time... even if it sets them on a crash course with the worst villains mankind has even known.

Being admitted to a hospital during a pandemic is bad. Being trapped there while a lunatic is on the loose is even worse. Ex-cop Jacqueline "Jack" Daniels, ex-criminal Phineas Troutt, and ex-private eye Harry McGlade are all healing after a near-fatal encounter. But it's tough to mend when there's a serial killer prowling the halls at night, draining patients of their blood. The psychosis is known as Renfield's syndrome. The psycho has eyes on Jack and her friends. And they're about to learn that giving blood isn't always voluntary... BITE FORCE by JA Konrath Get ready to sink your teeth in.
