I enjoyed this book, though I did have to struggle to get through it at times. It didn't "grab me" like some other books. It's got a bit of a noir feel to it, with some sci-fi and horror thrown in. The basic premise is a vampire PI investigating a rash of nymphomania at a secret government facility. For a book about nymphomania outbreaks, there is surprisingly little sex, but it doesn't harm the book at all. The main character is interesting and well drawn, and the mystery is well done. Overall a good, funny book, but don't get it if you're expecting a romantic "paranormal" kind of book. This one is more Sam Spade than Anita Blake, regardless of the presence of vampires and dryads.
