The Unbearable Inspector Oberlin

By Tammie Painter

Book burning. 

Jewel stealing. 

Vampire hunting.

Not exactly what I expected from a day’s work as a detective, but at least things are no longer dull at the agency.

Although I don’t know how much longer the doors to that agency will be open, since the due date for getting my detective license just went whizzing by faster than a fairy on pixie dust.

But, after making good use of my groveling skills, HQ has given me an extension to solve a case and complete my application. Which would be great if the only clients I have weren’t dead clients, missing clients, and persnickety clients.

I’m also contending with a boyfriend who’s refusing to speak to me, there's a vampire uprising close on the horizon, and more Magics going missing by the day, including my own parents (yes, again).

But the worst problem in my life right now?

A bubbly new assistant, who not only believes we’re besties, but also thinks hugging is permitted.

Seriously, I’ll take a vampire uprising over that, any day.

If you like wryly humorous comic fantasy with a touch of paranormal mystery, magic gone awry, treasure-stealing ravens, and problematic trips to the British Library, you’ll love this fifth installment of the Cassie Black Trilogy.


Note – The Unbearable Inspector Oberlin continues the story begun in The Unusual Mayor Marheart. Now, if you want to take a stab at reading this without reading the previous book, well, you do you. But, if you want to understand what's going on, you should probably peruse The Unusual Mayor Marheart before diving into this book.
