After all, a trip to the United States means a long-awaited chance to return to his hometown! But if he wants to secure the part, he’ll have to get through Akira first, and the gloomy embalmer doesn’t seem too keen on having Al’s face on the big screen again…

Since becoming a vampire, Albert’s life has fallen into an unchanging cycle-day to night, bat to vampire, USA to…Japan? After a mishap at a meat-processing plant in Nebraska, bat-Al is flash-frozen alongside his midday snack and shipped to a foreign land! Explaining to police how he really ended up wandering naked is out of the question, not to mention he doesn’t know a word of Japanese! Al will have to rely on the kindness (?) of his new companions if he’s going to get by in Tokyo-that is, if he can convince them he’s the bat!

This time, his unique abilities will be an asset in helping the police track down his would-be killer. Surely even Akira can’t fail to be impressed by the great bat detective!

After several months in Japan, Al is becoming accustomed to life on the far side of Asia. Living and working with Akira-though not without its spats and squabbles-has given him a place to belong for the first time since he became a vampire. But when a new assistant arrives at the Old Memorial Center and falls hard for Akira, Al realizes how quickly he could find himself alone again should Akira change his mind. Though discerning Akira’s true feelings-apart from annoyance-seems near impossible, Al might not have another choice...
