Red Widow (The Chronicles of Jesse Ames #1)

How to tell if a vampire is lying to you—when his mouth is moving!

To do list:

- Find a missing husband who may or may not be a real dirtbag
- Rescue a wizard from a dragon
- Save a poodle from getting eaten by vampires—seriously

It’s just another day at JT Investigations, only this case isn’t exactly what it seems. Is it ever?

My name is Jesse Ames. Eleven years at the FBI taught me two things—how to stay alive when a gun is pointed at my head, and that I never want to work for anyone else ever again. When I moved to Atlanta and started my own PI firm, I swore I’d never make my living chasing down missing or philandering spouses. But the rent is due, so when a woman knocked on my door and offered me a boatload of money to track down her missing husband who helped himself to a family heirloom on his way out, I had a hard time saying no. Seemed like easy money.

Wrong.

The local vampire cartel has also taken an interest in my case, and now I’m neck-deep in the shady blood trade questioning who the bad guys really are. Throw in a wizard with a fascination for dinosaurs and Venus flytraps, and my case just got even more complicated.

Did I mention my dead ancestors talk to me, and my partner and I are on the run from a ruthless vampire in New Orleans?

The Chronicles of Jesse Ames series is part of the Katie Bishop universe, so old friends from Savannah will pop in often.

Warning: Jesse has a mouth like a sailor. Colorful language is guaranteed.
