As a criminal, Simon Canderous would have never consider a 9-5 job, even PM but that’s what you get with The Department of Extraordinary Affairs. A booze cruise is drained of that life giving drink, blood. Are the vampires returned? Simon is a psychometrist and is called in to determine the type of Perp. His girlfriend is getting a little too close to her boss, a figure from his past is blackmailing him to open up a museum so she can steal THE SCREAM. This should be an interesting week at the local Sci Fi convention.

The book is like a mis-programmed pinball machine screaming tilt as the hero bounces around, but with eminently likable Simon and his bipolar reactions with tongue-in-cheek dialogue, you are having too much fun to put it down.

And just think of the fun of a chupacabra in Manhattan. ~~ Pam Allan
