I am wondering if the blond wizards are friend or foe to the Dark Stranger--I'm enjoying (and relieved) that the wise werewolf is, seemingly for now, a friend to him... San Francisco, eh? How could a girl refuse?;-) But... again, are the opportunistic Malfoys more than they seem to be and how far will they go to help settle the town down so that they may enjoy the fruits of their labour? 'That was no lady; that was a writer.'--HA! Love it! Looking forward to more!
