Small town librarian (and accidental dark magic user) Francie Vespertine would prefer her new magic to be fueled by rainbows and butterflies, but you can't always get what you want. Neither can her feline familiar, Kongressman Kittles. When his favorite brand of cat litter is discontinued, he's in a mood—and if the cat's not happy, no one's happy.
When a visiting author winds up dead at a book signing, Francie's best friend Penny is accused of the crime. Now she's got to find the real killer before they strike again.
And to make matters worse, another one of the cursed books is being read somewhere in town, but Francie can't find it. It's pure evil and drives whoever reads it insane. But in a town as nutty as Hell's Birth canal, how will she even be able to tell who's reading the book?
Plus the ghost of Frankenstein (Victor, not his monster) is lurking in the Archives and he's on the verge of a major scientific breakthrough. Maybe he can resurrect Francie's love life, too . . . Jump back into the story and spend some time with Francie, Kong, and the gang as they catch the killer and send another one of the cursed books back from whence it came.
