About This Book
Here's a secret: Jimmy's vampire dog, Abby, used to be the coolest crime-fighting pup around, but now she's acting way too normal—so normal that she's even chewing shoes instead of sniffing out trouble. Just when things start to feel boring, strange events target Jimmy's lacrosse team, and the Crimebiters know Abby's wild side is the only way to solve the mystery. But that's only the beginning.
