The Unbearable Inspector Oberlin

Book burning. 

Jewel stealing. 

Vampire hunting.

Not exactly what I expected from a day's work as a detective, but at least things are no longer dull at the agency.

Although I'm not sure how much longer the doors to that agency will be open, since the due date for getting my detective license just went whizzing by faster than a fairy on pixie dust.

But, after making good use of my groveling skills, HQ has given me an extension to solve a case and complete my application. Which would be great if the only clients I have weren't dead clients, missing clients, and persnickety clients.

I'm also contending with a boyfriend who's refusing to speak to me, there's a vampire uprising close on the horizon, and more Magics going missing by the day, including my own parents…again.

But the worst problem in my life right now?

A bubbly new assistant, who not only believes we're besties, but also thinks hugging is permitted.

Seriously, I'll take the vampire uprising over that, any day.

The Unbearable Inspector Oberlin is the second book in the new Cassie Black Trilogy. Or the fifth book in the old Cassie Black Trilogy. How you do the math is entirely your choice.

If you like wryly humorous comic fantasy with a touch of mystery, magic gone awry, treasure-stealing ravens, and problematic trips to the British Library, you'll love this latest installment of the Cassie Black Trilogy.

Note – This book is the second in the new Cassie Black Trilogy. If you want to take a stab at it without reading book four, well, you do you. But, if you want to understand everything's that's going on, reading Book 4 (The Unusual Mayor Marheart) prior to reading this one is highly recommended.
