'Old actors never die' shouldn't be literally true. Carrington Loveless III, skim-blood vampire and senior officer of Philly's paranormal police department, has long suspected that someone's targeting his squad. The increasingly bizarre and dangerous entities invading their city can't be a coincidence. So when a walking corpse spouting Oscar Wilde attacks one of his officers, Carrington's determined to uncover the evil mind behind it all. As a rare books librarian, Erasmus Graham thought he understood some of the stranger things in life. Sharing a life with Carrington has shown him he didn't know the half of it. They've survived attack books and deadly dust bunnies together and got through mostly unscathed. Now his world and his vampire's appear ready to collide again. Books are missing from the Rare Book collection--old tomes of magic containing dangerous summonings and necromancy. He's certain whoever has been stalking the Seventy-Seventh is composing their end game. It's going to take a consolidated effort from paranormal police, librarians and some not-quite-authorized civilians to head off the impending catastrophe.

Carrington and Erasmus are back at the forefront. Carrington has been promoted to senior duty officer and takes his job seriously. When it seems as though his officers are being specifically attacked, Carrington needs to figure out who or what is behind it.
Erasmus has seen several unusual things since he's been with Carrington, but it seems as though his library might be directly involved. Several books are missing from the Rare Books collection, and they aren't innocuous books. When corpses start attacking the team, it appears as though the two cases might be connected.
It was fun to see how far Carrington and Erasmus have come in their relationship. They are settled and happy with each other. And the rest of the team seems to be gelling, even the new additions. All the characters are distinct and have their own personalities and quirks, and people who accept those quirks.
The mystery wasn't the best; I spotted the villain from the get go. Still, it was fun to see all the characters, to know that they are going to be all right and more respected than they had been previously. ( )
