Synopsis:
Through the centuries, an elite cadre of vampire mercenaries called the scarlet order has operated as pinpoint assassins. Now, at the dawn of the twenty-first century, vampires are too expensive, too untrustworthy, and frankly, too passe for governments to hire any longer. Using nanotechnology, scientists can engineer more reliable super soldiers. What's a vampire got to do for job security?

Reviews:
Neal Asher describes Vampires of the Scarlet Order as: "A novel with bite. An amalgam of Blade and The Name of the Rose with a touch of X-Files thrown in for good measure."
