How to Stake a Vampire

By A D Starrling

A werewolf's guide to vampire politics: trust your nose, pack extra stakes, and never EVER investigate blood banks without backup.

Dear Diary,

Remember when my biggest problem was werewolf transformation etiquette? Those were simpler times.

Someone is attacking Amberford's vampire elite and my best friend Ellie just got turned into a bloodsucker while working her shift at Bean Me Up. She's now dealing with fangs, a newfound taste for Type O-negative, and an inconvenient crush on an aristocratic vampire boyfriend.

Meanwhile, my co-workers and I are trying to track down the homicidal maniac who's been stealing blood, hoarding genealogical records, and humming Beethoven while he plots to overthrow supernatural society.

Between Alliance politics, emergency staking tutorials, and my dog's unsolicited detective work, keeping everyone alive has become a full-time job. Especially since I seem to have developed some new abilities that are making the supernatural community very nervous. Including me.

How to Stake a Vampire continues the hilarious urban fantasy adventures of Abby West and her Husky Bo, the wannabe detective. Featuring ancient vampire politics, supernatural workplace shenanigans, a bad guy with questionable taste in hideouts, googly eyes, and enough snark to power a small town.
