While going undercover on the set of an adult film to investigate the mysterious deaths of several actresses, Chicago wizard Harry Desden unexpectedly learns the shocking truth about his vampire friend Thomas.
Harry Dresden, el único mago profesional de Chicago, ha tenido misiones mucho más duras que ir de incógnito al rodaje de una película porno. Sin embargo, en este nuevo caso hay algo particularmente inquietante. El productor de la película cree que es el objetivo de una siniestra maldición que hace que las mujeres que lo rodean mueran. Harry, además, está disgustado porque solo se ha involucrado en este extraño misterio para hacerle un favor a Thomas, un vampiro egocéntrico y de dudosa moral. Cuando su investigación lo conduce directamente a la lúbrica familia del vampiro, Harry descubre que el árbol genealógico de su supuesto amigo esconde un sorprendente secreto: una revelación que cambiará la vida del mago para siempre.

"What about her death curse?" I blinked. "You'd thought of that, right?" he asked. "What death curse?" I stammered. "Use your head, boy," Ebenezar said. "If she's got a wizard's power, she might well be able to level a death curse at you when she goes down." "Oh, come on," I muttered. "That's no fair. She's already dead."
She flipped to a second page and took a pen from behind one hair-bun. "Oh, what would you like on your vegetarian pizza?" "Dead pigs and cows," I said. She glanced up at me and wrinkled her nose. "They're vegetarians," I said defensively. "But what do you want on yours? I mean, I'm supposed to make everyone happy here." "Kill me some animals, then," I said. "It's a protein thing." "Oh, you should have said," Inari replied, smiling at me. We stopped in front of a door and she scribbled on her clipboard. "Some extra cheese, maybe some beans and corn. Or wait. Tofu. Protein. I'll fix you up." Bean-curd pizza, good grief. I should raise my rates.
"Hey, Harry. You know what?" "No. What?" "I'm thinking maybe we should get indoors." I picked up the puppy and scanned the darkness but saw nothing. "Discretion is the better part of not getting exsanguinated," I said. "Let's go."
Murphy had genuine worry on her face and actual tears in her eyes and I started feeling out of my depth. Maybe because it was a family thing. It seemed like something completely alien and I didn't get it. Murphy was worried about being close to her mom. Murphy should just go talk to her mom, right? Bite the bullet and clear the air. With anyone else she'd have handle the problem exactly that way. But I've noticed that people got the most irrational whenever family was around while simultaneously losing their ability to distinguish reason from insanity. I call it familial dementia.
