Totally loving this one! It's set in the same world as The Gardella Vampire Chronicles, taking place I think 60 years later. So no Victoria, but she is mentioned as being the great-great aunt of Evaline! But yes, this is definitely becoming a fave!!

"His eyes bored into me as I edged away. I could feel his angry stare between my shoulder blades as if he held the barrel of a Steam-Stream gun there. And of course, the moment I was out of his presence, I thought of all the sorts of cool, smart things I could have said to put him in his place." p 142*

I totally love this teaser because I have found myself in this same position as Miss Holmes. When you're just too flabbergasted by the other person's attitude (or idiocy or something else!) that you can't come up with that snarky comeback until its too late!

This cover is just deliciously awesome! Criminy rocks!
