Roadkill

Niko could have died because of her. I don't forget,, things like that... not ever. I wanted a little payback..!, For those she'd cheated in the past. For those she'd cheat in the future. For what she'd allowed to happen to my brother. For good old-fashioned revenge.

Once, while half-human Cal Leandros and his brother, Niko, were working on a case, an ancient Gypsy queen gave them a quite uncalled-for backstabbing. They barely made it out alive. Now, just as their PI business hits a slow patch, guess who shows up with a job.

The Gypsy crone wants them to find a stolen coffin. Cal would rather help her into one, but this coffin contains an evil known as the Plague of the World—and it makes the Black Death seem like a fond memory.

But the thief has already left town, so the Leandros brothers are going on the road. And if they're very, very lucky, there might even be a return trip.
