Decent little cozy mystery,I liked the MC Simon, a gay vampire writer. The biggest weakness in the story is that almost universally the villagers are dislikeable, except for Jane the other vampire. She was just leading Simon along to throw off the fact that she was the murderer. It's hard for the reader to like a story, when all of the characters are offensive. Simon even compares the English village to small town Mississippi. Which Simon as a gay vampire had little good to say.
“Sounds like where I grew up in Mississippi,” I drawled. “People might know you’re gay, but they gloss right over the fact because it’s not something one mentions in polite society. As long as you don’t make an issue of it or embarrass anyone by bringing your boyfriend home for a visit, it simply is ignored.

Amusing, 'cozy' mystery story. Kept me up into the wee small hours to finish it.

Now need to track down the rest of the series. ( )
