Oh, all right, if **Der Trihs** is going to be nice and explain, I should too. Kim Harrison’s Rachel Morgan books all take their titles from Clint Eastwood movies, and as of the last couple books, one of the characters is a (toddler) banshee. Actually, I haven’t read the new book yet, so I’m not sure Holly is in it, but I have a feeling she’ll be in the series in the future even if not this latest book. ---
