Attending the Yaqui tribersquo;s Easter Ceremonies in Tucson should be a dream come true for a Cheyenne wannabe shaman like Mad Dog.160; Instead, Mad Dog is accused of being a witch. And when a policeman is murdered moments later, he is blamedmdash;making Mad Dog and his wolf-hybrid, Hailey, targets of a city-wide manhunt with shoot-first overtones. 160; 160;
Mad Dogrsquo;s niece, Heather English, a part-time deputy for her father in Kansas, combs Tucsonrsquo;s mean streets to arrange a peaceful surrender or clear her uncle by finding the real killer.160; Meanwhile, back in Kansas, someone has blown Mad Dogrsquo;s house off the face of the Great Plains.160; 160;
At least Mad Dog can tell the sheriff who killed the cop: he has been playing a massive online computer game, War of Worldcraft.160; There, a vampire wizard has made a habit of tormenting him.160; He recognized the monster as the cop killer at the Yaqui ceremonies.160; Somehow, he says, the creature has reached out of the game to come after him in the real world.160; The ghost in the machine promises death for Mad Dog and explicit and horrible tortures for Heathermdash;half a country away, and all before dawn....
This is the fifth book in the acclaimed Mad Dog and Englishman series.
