Epiphanius Tighe and the Dragon of East South Water Street Richard Woods

Epiphanius Tighe, the intrepid draconic taxonomist from A DIVERSITY OF DRAGONS, is on the trail again, hotly pursuing a Libyan specimen hell-bent on revenge in Chicago after the theft of its trove. Eppy is quickly drawn into a dangerous web of crime, graft, and deadly violence as he tracks the dragon into the abandoned freight tunnels under the Windy City, aided by his great grand-nephew Ciaran Tighe, a Jewish detective named Rasa Rapetsky, and Brennan Kirwin, a skeptical police investigator. Caught in the crossfire between police thugs, a mad professor, and the ire of a fire-breathing dragon, can Eppy save both the dragon and his new friends before disaster strikes?
