Dead & Breakfast and Other Stories

Not all detectives are heroes.

And when the dead can't defend themselves, help comes from the most unlikely sources.

It might be from P.I.s with offices in unusually high places ("Heaven Knows"). It might come from shapeshifters in love ("Stakes & Adders"). Hell, it could even come from...you've guessed it, Hell. ("667, Evil and Then Some"). But whether you're cruising a narrow boat down an English canal ("The Way It Is") or taking a break on an idyllic French lakeside ("Dead & Breakfast"), justice is like the endings in these stories. You never see it coming.
