<b>A witty, charming fantasy adventure starring Greta Helsing, doctor to the undead, whose family has been keeping the supernatural community not-alive and well for generations.</b><br><br> When Greta Helsing, doctor to the undead, is unexpectedly called to Paris to present at a medical conference, she expects nothing more exciting than professional discourse on zombie reconstructive surgery and skin disease in bogeymen―and hopefully at least one uneventful night at the Opera.<br><br> Unfortunately for Greta, Paris happens to be infested with a coven of vampires -- and not the civilized kind. If she hopes to survive, Greta must navigate the darkest corners of the City of Lights, the maze of ancient catacombs and mine-tunnels underneath the streets, where there is more to find than simply dead men's bones.<br><br><b>Praise for the Dr. Greta Helsing Novels:</b><br><br> "An exceptional and delightful debut, in the tradition of<i> Good Omens</i> and <i>A Night in the Lonesome October</i>."―Elizabeth Bear, Hugo-award winning author<br><br> "Shaw balances an agile mystery with a pitch-perfect, droll narrative and cast of lovable misfit characters. These are not your mother's Dracula or demons."―<i>Shelf Awareness</i><br><br><b>Dr. Greta Helsing Novels</b><br><i>Strange Practice <br> Dreadful Company<br> Grave Importance</i>
