The Day Shift

Midnight, Texas, is a town of people who prefer to be left alone, and the press is the last thing its residents want. Manfred Bernardo, a psychic, has brought it exactly that.

On a working weekend in Dallas, Manfred sees Olivia Charity, his secretive neighbour, with a couple. The next day both of them are found dead. Olivia lives with the vampire Lemuel, and nobody in town knows how she earns a living. They only know she is beautiful and dangerous.

The trouble deepens when one of Manfred's regular clients, a very wealthy one, dies in the middle of a reading. Manfred comes home from Dallas caught up in scandal, with reporters on his trail.

He turns to Olivia, the one person he believes can set things right. Whether she will help, and what that help costs, drives the book. It is a supernatural mystery set in a town where the odd is everyday, and the word normal is used loosely.
