When Allison was recruited by Zee Castle it was in the capacity of research scientist. The sociologist was tasked with determining if the living and the undead could coexist in a peaceful sociological setting. For a young woman who detests fresh air and physical exertion she believes she had found the perfect employer. Over the course of her first decade with the oddballs of the Castle, life was good and she was happy. That was then. Now she can't quite understand why she is laying her life on the line in the capacity of investigator, and with two undead assistants at her command instead of the traditional one. Is the problem the vampire who requested her assistance? Can easily believable human greed be responsible for four dozen murders? How often can the two Zeds be raped and murdered, and how long can Allison cope with the guilt before her decisions destroy her? ***** CAUTION: This book contains intense material including heavy descriptions of violence, rape, and murder, and may be disturbing to some readers.
