And I've just landed a job at a shabby downtown agency. Watch out, LA!But that was before I discovered the agency's specialty-hunting monsters. The actual kind. Suddenly, I'm learning about a side of the city that makes horror seem like a documentary: vampires, werewolves, hostile spirits, and all manner of magic. This is probably where I should run screaming, but I need the money. I'm also intrigued by my mentor-a strong, silent throwback in a Members Only jacket.Couple of problems. One, I conned my way into the position. And two, the agency forbids supernatural hires … and I've sort of been shooting fire from my hands lately. Oh, and there are factions in LA who seem to want me dead.Which has me worried.
