Light and humorous
MJD's novels are always a delight. Even her acknowledgements are funny as she points out in this novel that the book would not have been possible without the author (and of course Godiva chocolates)! The Undead series centers around Betsy, the unwitting Queen of the Vampires, and her adventures with her consort, Sinclair. In this book, Betsy discovers she has a half-sister, Laura. Of course, Laura is the daughter of the devil (and is anyone surprised that Betsy's stepmother was possessed by the devil?) and bad things happen when Laura loses her temper. Meanwhile, Betsy manages to temporarily alienate her friends when she reads the Book of the Dead. This is a light and humorous novel that made me laugh out loud.
