I'm almost at the end of this book. And I decided to start writing about it while it is still fresh in my memory. I always do better with these posts when I start writing them during reading instead of after I finish the book.
This book, like all the previous ones, follows special agent Patrick Collins (and his boyfriend Jonno, the god pack werewolf). They are tracking down the Morrigan staff and it leads them to an auction in London. So they drag Lucien in to be the one to bid for the staff as they can't easily get into the auction. Lucien is a vampire. A ruling vampire from New York, Manhattan.
In London, they encounter the local god pack and find out that one of the leaders is actually a hunter possessed by a demon of a pretty high rank. They dance around each other for a while until it all culminates during the auction and after a big fight, the staff is gone. They track it to Paris and after a bit of searching and a meeting with the Paris god pack, they have to fight their way through a horde of some kind of super zombies and try and defeat the necromancer that seems to have the staff and is a worshiper of some death god from Europe of old. I'm pretty sure the god's name starts with a T, but don't ask me to spell it out, it sounded complicated. I think it was from Slavic folklore specifically.
