Ch. 9

After Satanas committed suicide and Venomous became the new Grand Master of Les Vampires, he and Irma plot to kill Phillipe and his friend once and for all. Irma leases a flat above Phillipe's fiancée's at 115 rue d'Artois, and plot to kill her and Phillipe at their engagement party on 11 February, with poisoned wine. But their butler drink sit instead, and promptly drops dead from it. The rest of the guests are stopped from drinking any of it, and Les Vampires quickly escape into the night. Later Irma tries again to kill them, by filling their motor-carriage with gas, only to be spotted. More chases to each other's hotels leads nowhere, as this entire chapter seems merely an excuse just to get to the next, and final, chapter. Good climactic chase aboard the rooftop of a train, but it is a long wait to get there.
