Willkommen in Chipping Cheddar, wo übernatürliche Wesen im Verborgenen leben... Eine lästige, aber liebevolle Familie? Stimmt. Eine malerische Kleinstadt mit einem heißen Polizeichef? Richtig. Ein geretteter Höllenhund, eine aggressive schwarze Katze und eine Python, die sich für einen Welpen hält als Haustier? Dreifach korrekt. Meine Geschichte hat alle Merkmale einer netten und gemütlichen, übernatürlichen Geschichte, aber sie hat eine überraschende Wendung. Ich bin böse. Ich bin von Natur aus böse, aber ich kämpfe mit jeder Faser meines Wesens dagegen an.

In the second book of the suspense-filled Gentleman Bastard Sequence, hailed by George R. R. Martin as “fresh, original, and engrossing,” Locke Lamora faces a caper so death-defying that nothing short of a miracle will pull it off. For some, only a prize worth dying for makes life worth...

Except then I'm no better than they are. Meanwhile, there’s a new supernatural threat in town, but I’m too preoccupied to put on my badge and get to work.

When he finally meets his end, he's the last vampire lord standing, killed by two heroes, whom he drags with him into death. (At least he has that.) But death isn't the end. Instead of eternal darkness for this soulless being, Kyler awakens in a strange world, no longer the ancient predator he once was.

She’s thrilled when Patrick connects her with a client, the owner of a local gym called Burn Notice. She’s less than thrilled, however, when a dead body is discovered on the premises.
