Publisher Description
She’s Like a Virgin . . . Simulated for the Very First Time
For a red-blooded male, Las Vegas offers a virtual smorgasbord of temptation: sexy showgirls, vampy vampires, zombie starlets, you name it. But paranormal investigator Delilah Street isn’t worried about losing her man to these vixens. Especially when the one woman with a soft spot for the guy also has a hard-shelled exterior. . . .
She’s a robot—or a CinSim, to be exact—a near-perfect simulation of the silver-metal robot Maria from the classic science fiction movie Metropolis. Part innocent teenage actress, part depraved sex goddess, the new Maria is hooked on Delilah’s partner, Ric, who raised her from the dead. She also happens to be the perfect secret weapon for a demonic drug lord. Which could be one hell of a problem. Delilah’s not the jealous type, but this tin-can temptress must be stopped—even if it forces Delilah to forge a dangerous alliance with her wicked mirror-twin, Lilith. If robo-girl goes ballistic, every player in Vegas loses. . . .
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Paranormal investigator Delilah Street and company return to the supernaturally occupied Las Vegas of 2013 in their engaging fifth adventure (after 2010's The Silver Zombie). Having acquired the Silver Zombie, Delilah now applies her investigative skills and silver-working magical talents to discovering more about her identity, her past, and several mysterious women in her life, including her mother and her mirror-twin. She also inflicts her well-meaning assistance on her lover, Ric Montoya, as he confronts certain dangerous parties interested in his zombie-raising abilities and the coveted Metropolis robot zombie that calls him "master." Delilah's snappy voice owes much to her passion for the era of the silver screen, and readers will love spotting all the film references peppering this strong urban fantasy.
