Synopsis
Dina DeMille is recuperating from the life-and-death peace summit her inn hosted when a call for help comes from the one person she cannot refuse: her sister Maud, widowed on a vampire planet and stranded there with her five-year-old daughter Helen, half vampire and wholly a problem. Rescuing them brings Dina's family history into the open, and brings to the Gertrude Hunt a guest the entire galaxy has been hunting: the last survivor of a species that everyone believed extinct, pursued by assassins whom the inn's defences and Dina's broom may not be enough to stop. With Sean Evans, the werewolf who went to the stars and came back, and the vampire Arland at her side, Dina must hide a fugitive, hold her inn and face the mystery of her parents' vanished inn, which may be connected to the hunt. The third Innkeeper novel.
