Christopher Farnsworth

Christopher Farnsworth is an American thriller writer best known for the President's Vampire series, beginning with Blood Oath, which imagines a secret vampire operative who has served as a covert protector of the United States presidency since the nineteenth century, blending political thriller conventions with supernatural horror. He also worked as a screenwriter, contributing to television and film projects that drew on the same blend of genre conventions found in his novels. Farnsworth contributed to the continuation of Robert B. Parker's Jesse Stone series, joining the small group of authors entrusted with extending Parker's small-town Massachusetts police procedural after Parker's death, bringing his own genre-writing sensibility to the established character and setting. His solo work has been noted for combining research-grounded political and security detail with overt genre elements, a hybrid approach distinct from more straightforward thriller writing. Farnsworth continues to write across novels and screen projects, maintaining a career built on blending supernatural or high-concept premises with grounded thriller and procedural mechanics.
