Trinity, the sequel to Virgin, finds Charlie Meadows, the most famous virgin since Mary, of biblical times, trying to decide between the delectable, Dr. Sam Macgregor and the sexy, Detective Roman Mendoza.
Charlie soon finds that choosing a lover is the least of her concerns. Women who look like her are disappearing from the city. Alfred is back from the dead.
