New York Times best-seller Jennifer Estep continues her Elemental
Assassin urban fantasy series with a novella starring Silvio Sanchez,
the vampire assistant of Gin Blanco, as he goes on a holiday date that
turns out to be more deadly than romantic.
Working for Gin Blanco (aka the Spider, the assassin who runs the
Ashland underworld) doesn't leave much time for romance, especially with
Gin's holiday party planning in full swing. But when he catches the eye
of a charming gentleman, Silvio finds himself going out for coffee.
All's fair in love and war, though. Just as Silvio is starting to enjoy
himself, he realizes he's being watched. His nice guy date doesn't sense
the danger, and Silvio wants to keep it that way (and, well, keep the
guy alive), so Silvio ends the date early - only to be abducted by some
villainous giants. Will Silvio survive the night and make it back to the
Pork Pit in time for Gin's holiday party? Only if he decks the hall with
bodies.
