Sinful Souls (John Ford #1)

Obsidian says Fords' are pariahs among the living; a scourge among the dead; doomed to walk between the light of day and the deepest darkness beyond night.

When John Jameson Myers Ford the sixth was human and a bitter Detective Inspector of London Metropolitan Police Department, working secretly for Society of Saints, his name as the trespasser of the OtherSide was whispered warily by the undead and the order alike. John in his personal life was a flawed man, with hidden drug habits, gambling, adultery and murders. His marriage was falling to pieces and his priestly older brother kept on harping on about his knack for trouble and for god's-sake stop cheating John!

And soon John's world was thrown into disarray. He was about to complete the drugs bust of his career and planning to spend a nice and cosy Christmas with his wife, when an assailant gouged a hole so deep in his chest that his death was irrefutable...despite his body never being found.

Now, twelve years later, John Jameson Myers Ford known as JJ in America, is a fugitive from both the English law, and the secret order which has operated society for its own ends for centuries.

Abandoning all hope for a normal life, he's still dealing with the fallout. He's haunted by the deeds of his past, struggles to balance his life as a tattoo artist and a vampire trying to keep his human ex-wife and eleven years old human daughter away from the deadly clutches of the supernatural world and his growing convoluted feelings for a particular Jesuit Priest.

Then there's Lady Red and Evil Oueen of New York City, ring leaders of two dangerous supernatural cabal, who wants to have him at any cost.
