Vampires, werewolves, crime bosses and cheating sleazebag husbands, oh dear!

Samantha Moon (call her Sam) is a Private Investigator, a mom and a currently separated wife. She’s also a vampire. And she’s still coming to terms with all that means.

So we join Sam as she picks up the pieces after being kicked out of her home by her husband, who is disgusted with what she is. At the same time she is faced with two new cases to investigate.

A grieving widower whose wife died in a plane crash along with 11 other federal witnesses for a crime boss’s trial, a crash he believes was engineered by the crime boss himself. And it’s up to Sam to arrange the fitting justice for the criminal.

And then there’s the abused divorcee whose ex-husband has already tried to kill her twice, and succeeded in killing her father and crippling her mother. A woman who’s like a shell of a person, and in desperate need of comfort and friendship. And it's up to Sam to protect her from her ex and the hired assassins he's sending.

Along the way we find Sam beginning to accept who she is and even learn more about her condition, and find out more about her husband. We also learn more about her Instant Message confidant Fang and her werewolf squeeze Kingsley Fulcrum.

Rating… 5 out of 5 fangs. Much as with Moon Dance, this was an awesome read, and what’s more, it’s a book I wholeheartedly recommend. Now, I read this in the omnibus edition called “Samantha Moon” but seriously, if you like PI tales and vampires, get this book in any way you can. :)
