Cold Streets by P.N. Elrod

Cold Streets is the 2004 addition to the Jack Fleming/vampire series written by P.N. Elrod. Jack is happily managing his nightclub, Lady Crymsyn in Chicago, when he gets called on to sort out a couple of problems.

First, Jack has a kidnapping case to solve, as a favor to his friend and partner Escott. The mentally-challenged, teenaged daughter of a society matron has been kidnapped, and Escott has been hired to investigate. Jack uses his vampyric powers to help nab the knappers, but that's just the beginning of the trouble.

Second, a New York gangster is in town, trying to take over the territory of Jack's friend Gordy Weems. Jack tries to help out Gordy, and once again, runs into complications.

This outing lands Jack in some hot water in some very cold places. If you've read earlier Jack Fleming books, you'll probably like this one. If not, it's not a good place to start.
