Cassie Tam Files

New Hopeland City may have been built to be the centerpiece of the technological age, but some remnants of the old world still linger. The tools of the trade have changed, but the corruption remains the same, even in the criminal underworld ...When PI Cassie Tam and her girlfriend Lori try to make up for their recent busy schedules with a night out at the theatre to watch the Tech Shift performer Kitsune, the last thing they expected was for Cassie to get a job offer. But some people are never off the clock, and by the end of the evening, Cassie has been drawn into a mundane but highly paid missing pet case. Unfortunately, in New Hopeland City, even something as simple as little lost dog can lead you down some dark paths. Until now, Cassie wasn't aware that there even was a rabbit hole, let alone how far down it goes.

New Hopeland City may be the birthplace of Tech Shifter gear, but it isn't the only place that likes to blend technology with folklore. Now, a new nightmare is stalking the streets...When PI Cassie Tam is attacked on the way home one night, she expects the police to get involved. What she doesn't expect is to be forced into acting as bait to lure out a lunatic in a tech-suit that's literally out for blood. But past actions have consequences, and doing so may be the only way she can get a clean slate from the city's law makers. If only that didn't mean having to face down a wannabe vampire.
