Shades of Blood Publisher's Summary

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Before he became the legendary Heretic. Before he lost everything to the Adversary. Cade Williams was just learning to command.

Captain Cade Williams has been leading Echo Team for only five years when they're handed a nightmare assignment: investigate a blood cult in Boston and find the missing Templar squad that went in before them. No intel. No preparation. Just a panicked message from a parish priest about disappearing street people and a veteran Knight Captain's team gone silent for three weeks.

A lightning-fast supernatural thriller where rookie mistakes meet ancient predators, and a rescue mission becomes a fight for survival.

When Echo Team arrives in Boston, they find a priest's corpse left on the church altar—skin stretched tight over bone, eyes gone, body completely drained. Not of blood. Of life force itself. And stuffed in the dead priest's mouth: Bishop's Templar ring.

The "blood cult" isn't human. It's Ch'iang Shih—Chinese hopping vampires, some of the deadliest supernatural creatures the Order has ever encountered. Animated corpses driven by an insatiable hunger for Chi, the essence of life. They don't just kill you. They drain you until you're a withered husk, then wear your skin like a disguise.

And they have Bishop.

Using his psychometry powers, Cade reads Bishop's ring and sees through his teammate's eyes: a warehouse in the industrial district. Bishop's surrounded by vamps, bleeding, barely alive. It's an obvious trap.

They go anyway.

When Cade's Sight reveals enemies that can phase between worlds, and bullets can't stop creatures already dead, Echo Team must adapt or die.
