Summary: Richard Castle likes to believe that there are monsters and aliens out there, waiting to cause chaos. Trouble is that this time, he's right.

Review:
Hee, this is a hilarious case fic about the NYPD crew coming up against the fantastic and unexplained death of a girl, with bite marks on her neck. I loved how they try to explain it logically, and Castle is bouncing around about vampires. The ambiguity of whether or not the perp is a real vampire is one of the reasons this fic stuck with me, and the suspense is palpable until the end. I love it when the 'real' world is confronted with the unexplainable, and to see it done well in a fandom that doesn't regularly deal with fantasy and the supernatural is equally awesome. In conclusion, Kate Beckett FTW.
