Never underestimate a librarian. Readers learned that lesson with
the Prefect's first adventure (Miss Blaine's Prefect and the Golden
Samovar, which Publishers Weekly called "marvelous" and "a
laugh-out-loud farce" in their starred review). Now a certain Count from
Transylvania is about to learn it as well, when the intrepid Shona
McMonagle (comfortably padded, in her middle years, and a whiz at
obscure martial arts) time-travels to 19th-century France to help a
village being menaced by a mysterious killer. It's true that Dracula's
name has for more than a hundred years been a byword for terror, but
nothing can stop an agent trained by the Marcia Blaine School for Girls.
