You'll Enjoy Taking a Bite out of This Book November 17, 2004

American schoolteacher Grace Hollister is still on sabbatical in England. But things are not all roses. Peter Fox, the reason she stayed, is withdrawing. He especially clams up when the subject of the recent burglaries in the area come up. Could he have returned to his former life of crime? Meanwhile, Grace has joined the local theater company's version of "The Vampyre" as a technical consultant. The rehearsals don't seem to be progressing too smoothly, and the accidents happening to the cast don't help. Couple that with the rumor of a real vampire in the area, and this will be an October few will forget. Having enjoyed the first in the series, I was looking forward to reading this one as well. While it didn't start with quite the bang the first one did, it gained momentum quickly and by the end, I was staying up way to late to read "just a little more." Grace and Peter are great lead characters. They are sufficiently complex and likable, making it easy to root for them to solve the current problems. This series is wonderful for anyone looking for a puzzling adventure. You really should read the first book first (High Rhymes and Misdemeanors) to get the complete background on the characters. Personally, I'm already counting the days until the third comes out.
