The Big Quest Ion

Due to their mishandling of The Night of Hallow Veils case, Brondheim and Higgins have been placed on administrative leave and dispatched to the Caribbean for some undeserved R&R. But fate isn't finished with them yet! In a sleepy port village on Prince Rupert Bay, a sinister plot is unfolding. One of murder! One of mayhem! One of... magic? It seems that not even the cerulean waters of Dominica can keep Brondheim (and a reluctant Higgins) away from solving yet another spooky crime...

A ghostly bell? A murdered sailor? A CLIFFSIDE BDSM DUNGEON?? It's all coming up on this episode of THE BIG QUEST ION!

We know you've been waiting a long time for the epic conclusion of the Bat of Balsamica! Thank you for sticking with us, this podcast is a labour of love and both Xander and Taylor have to balance this podcast with regular jobs and friends and families and marathons and bands and loved ones-- if we had it our way we'd get rid of all of 'em and do nothing but churn out eps for you, dear listener!!

But we digress. We know what you want. It's spooky season. You want nightmares. You want horror. You want the reeking stench of garlic seeping into every nostril you have (hopefully no more than two). So, where were we...

Billiam, Bertrand, Tabitha and the Zealot arrive at the one place they can stop Curtis Smith: the garlic district. But an unholy army awaits to thwart their last chance to save the city...
 
Riddles? Earth-shattering epic mayhem? SPLEENS?? It's all coming up on this episode of THE BIG QUEST ION!

The city of Balsamica is a rotting hellscape ruled with an iron fist by oligarch Curtis Smith. None dare oppose him, save for one brave Vampire and his trusty (if not ___) sidekick: Billiam Bucharesti and Bertrand Balfive. Tonight, their mission is to save the only politician willing to stand up to Curtis Smith: Councilwoman Tabitha Quigley, at the Mayoral Gala, before Curtis Smith can force through a vote on the Devious Act. Red tape has never been so thrilling!

A vigilante vampire? A secret council of elders? Municipal Metropolitan Proceedings?? It's all coming up on this episode of THE BIG QUEST ION!
