We meet Hattie Silverthorne, a detective and medical examiner who also happens to be a two hundred-year-old vampire. When her personal assistant and consort Ben finds a discarded invitation for a costume party, she suddenly accepts after he reminds her repeatedly she promised him a vacation involving snow. They along with their pet Shih Tzu set out for Colorado.
A murder mystery awaits them, offering us a chance to see Silverthorne in action. This was entertaining although I felt like a stranger at the party. The author does a good job of introducing us to paranormals in the community and we get the sense they have all worked together solving crimes. Before it's all said and done, there will be a demonic possession and a few twists.
While I would have liked a longer story and series order, The Undead Detective, was entertaining and left me curious enough to go back and read The Undead Detective Bites. You'll find that review next week. A simple, entertaining mystery with a sharp-witted detective. This review was originally posted at Caffeinated Reviewer
