You can take the dead girl out of the country... Veronica Fischer, small-town bloodsucking madam, is an orphan or at least she finally feels that way. Jules, the one who made her, is gone and cleaning up after him isn't something she ever thought she'd have to do. While her hometown seems to be turning against her, she's forced to set off for the bright lights of the big city with a carload of her dysfunctional supernatural family, hoping not to have to face the Dragon of Chicago. Now she has to rescue a sister she didn't know she had, keep Rachel-her adopted 8-year-old ghost-safe, and try to keep Pekin from unraveling under the onset of the coming storm. Sex, violence, and cryptic undead prophecy-all for fun and profit.
