This is a cozy mystery where the protagonist, Mimi, is a private eye who owns and operates the Gotcha Detective Agency. I was expecting the mystery to have a church setting with the violence relatively subdued and humor aplenty. WRONG. The murder involves a violent beheading with the clues leading to a citywide vampire role-playing game. Parts of the book I found fresh, engaging and difficult to put down; other parts, like the torturous relationship between Mimi and lead detective and former flame, Nick, were fairly trite. 270 pages.
