Synopsis (Goodreads):
Stakes, suspicion, and secrets in Nightmare, ArizonaThoughts on Slaying at the Saloon: The Sanctuary vampires are a little concerned when a human is found staked. Fortunately for them, Olivia had a front row seat (not literally, I think she was more in the back of the seats, but she was there when things happened) to the reveal of the body and she's not one to let a mystery slide. Especially when her friends might be in danger.
When a server is found with a stake through her heart onstage at Nightmare Saloon, everyone at Nightmare Sanctuary Haunted House worries a vampire hunter is in town. After all, the murder happened just before the curtain rose for Allie Nunes, a vampire singer traveling through Nightmare.
Olivia Kendrick and her friends at the Sanctuary must protect Allie and the other vampires, all while trying to find out who slayed the saloon girl. But as more details emerge, Olivia realizes the victim had a dark past and a lot of enemies. Tracking down the killer won’t be easy.
While Olivia works to solve the case, she also has to guide the handsome, brooding Damien Shackleford through a shocking discovery about his missing father. Starting over at midlife wasn’t supposed to be this hard, or this dangerous…
Let's face it, while the victim might have been human, the stake through the heart is concerning.
So Olivia starts asking questions. She formulates theories. She learns about another mysterious death the year before. She refines those theories. She has suspicions. Lots of suspicions.
On the other side of the coin, she and Damien are working together to...I don't know if I'd say they're actively searching for Damien's father, exactly, but they are finding clues that lead to more questions. Damien's also working with Olivia to get a handle on her abilities (although Olivia's half convinced she doesn't actually have any abilities) and the more time she spends with the brooding guy, the more she softens toward him.
Some vampiric shenanigans, a man who likes the ladies, a mine with a secret, and a lady who just can't let injustice lie. So she does something about it.
