Lily Goodwill thinks she’s heard it all, working at a Suicide Prevention Center in San Francisco —then she gets a call from a man thinking about jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge. Something about the caller, maybe his yummy British accent or Lily’s ability to understand his crushing ennui, makes her break all the rules and rush to meet him. After all, she is a vampire and if she can’t talk him down she can glamour him and haul him to the hospital.
But things don’t go according to plan. Her caller glows with blue fire and turns out to be a vampire-hating Djinn. Suddenly, for the first time in centuries he’s found some¬thing intriguing. Is Lily really a vampire with a conscience and an obsessive-compulsive disorder, involving Handi-wipes and Lysol—or is she just another bloodsucker?
Add a vampire, with a history of female lovers stretching over three centuries, who swears he’s reformed and loves Lily with all his unbeating heart. Stir in a mean pair of witches and a vicious warlock, who are staking vampires around the city and you have a recipe for riotous adven-ture of supernatural proportions.
Lily Goodwill is a quick thinking, smart-talking vampire who’s still figuring out how she feels about dining
al fresco in the City by the Bay.
