Book Six, Blood Trade

Been There, Shot the Place Up: Jane, out riding Bitsa, wishes she could leave New Orleans and her depression over her life (no Rick, no Molly, being bound to Leo) behind. Reach calls, with a job offer from Hieronymus, MOC of Natchez. It seems that too many Naturaleza vamps are on the loose, and over one hundred people are missing from the area. Jane agrees to take the job if she can get the house she wants as lodging. When she gets home, Jane tells Eli and the Kid about the job. During the conversation, Jane learns that the two were planning on leaving, given Jane’s recent foul mood and the ensuing lack of activity. After the guys agree to stay on, Jane calls Reach. Hieronymus has agreed to Jane’s terms, but Reach cautions her about not angering Leo and tells Jane she has an appointment with a reporter, a woman writing a book on vamps—a woman Jane knew in her days at the Christian Children’s Home.

You Might Have to Kill Something: Jane receives a phone call from Leo, who tries to convince her that she may not leave the city or his employ without his permission. Jane points out that Hieronymus is really Leo’s problem, so she should be helping him. Though Leo is not satisfied, Jane leaves anyway. Once she arrives in Natchez, Esmee, the owner of the house, greets Jane and states that the last time Jane and company were in town was the most fun she’d had in years, despite her house getting shot up. After greeting Jameson, the butler, and eating a robust meal, Jane goes to her room and thinks about her upcoming meeting with Misha and Bobby. Jane remembers Misha as a quiet girl, and recalls often defending the slightly slow Bobby from kids who picked on him. Jane dozes off, but when she wakes leaves for her meeting. Bobby greets Jane with a bear hug at the hotel room door, and introduces her to Charly, Misha’s young daughter, who is obviously sick.

I’ll Break Every Finger . . . One By One: When Misha comes into the room, she reminds Jane of an incident from their youth where Jane stood up for her, threatening a bully. Misha thanks Jane for what she did back then. Over tea and chocolate, the two women discuss Misha’s book, which is basically a study on vampires: their history, hierarchy, and even how to kill them. All of this worries Jane, but she is most upset by the discovery of her name in the book. Misha promises she will take out anything Jane does not agree to, but she needs reliable information so she can finish her book and receive payment to pay for her daughter’s treatment. Jane has the Kid research Misha’s human contact who had promised her information on the vamps, Bryson Ryder. Eli and Jane go to the man’s office, which appears to not have been visited in weeks, but his files show that he had done taxes for some local vamps.
