The hob and hound pub - seana kelly

Im Sam Quinn, the newly married werewolf book nerd owner of the Slaughtered Lamb Bookstore and Bar.

Clive and I are on our honeymoon.

Paris is lovely, though the mummy in the Louvre inching toward me is a bit off-putting.

Although Clive doesnt sense anything, I cant shake the feeling Im being watched.

Even after we cross the English Channel to begin our search for Aldith-the woman whos been plotting against Clive since the beginning-the prickling unease persists.

Clive and I are separated, rather forcefully, and Im left to find my way alone in a foreign country, evading not only Aldiths large web of hench-vamps, but vicious fae creatures disloyal to their queen.

Gloriana says theres a poison in the human realm thats seeping into Faerie, and I may have found the source.

I knew this was going to be a working vacation, but battling vampires on one front and the fae on another is a lot, especially in a country steeped in magic.

As a side note, I need to get word to Benvair.

I think Ive found the dragon shes looking for.

Gloriana is threatening to set her warriors against the human realm, but I may have a way to placate her.

Aldith is a different story.

Theres no reasoning with rabid vengeance.

Shell need to be put out of our misery permanently if Clive and I have any hope of a long, happy life together.

Heck, Id settle for a few quiet weeks.
